It is only great pain--that slow, sustained pain that takes its time, in which we are, as it were, burned with smoldering green firewood--that forces us philosophers to sink to our ultimate profundity and to do away with all the trust, everything good-natured, veil-imposing, mild and middling, on which we may have previously based our humanity. I doubt that such a pain makes us 'better'--but I know that it makes us deeper.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

It is not your sin - it is you...

It is not your sin - it is your moderation that cries to heaven; your very sparingness in sin cries to heaven!

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

I have been casting shadows all my life without caring about how deeply they stain my soul.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The Hour-Hand of Life --- Life...

The Hour-Hand of Life --- Life consists of rare, isolated moments of the greatest significance, and of innumerably many intervals, during which at best the silhouettes of those moments hover about us. Love, springtime, every beautiful melody, mountains, the moon, the sea - all these speak completely to the heart but once, if in fact they ever do get a chance to speak completely. For many men do not have those moments at all, and are themselves intervals and intermissions in the symphony of real life.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Whenever the truth is uncovere...

Whenever the truth is uncovered, the artist will always cling with rapt gaze to what still remains covering even after such uncovering; but the theoretical man enjoys and finds satisfaction in the discarded covering and finds the highest object of his pleasure in the process of an ever happy uncovering that succeeds through his own efforts.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

So long as the spectator has t...

So long as the spectator has to figure out the meaning of this or that person, or the presuppositions of this or that conflict of inclinations and purposes, he cannot become completely absorbed in the activities and sufferings of the chief characters or feel breathless pity and fear.

You must climb above yourself-up and beyond, until you have even your stars under you.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Man is a rope stretched between the animal and the Superman-a rope over an abyss. A dangerous crossing, a dangerous wayfaring, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Sins are indispensable to every society organized on an ecclesiastical basis; they are the only reliable weapons of power; the priest lives upon sins; it is necessary to him that there be sinning.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

One does not kill by anger but by laughter.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

One had better put on gloves before handling the New Testament. The presence of so much filth makes it highly advisable.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Parasitism is the only practic...

Parasitism is the only practice of the church; with its ideal of anaemia, its holiness, draining all blood, all love, all hope for life; the beyond as the will to negate every reality; the cross as the mark of recognition for the most subterranean conspiracy that ever existed-against health, beauty, whatever has turned out well, courage, spirit, graciousness of the soul, against life itself.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Priests ... these turkey-cocks...

Priests ... these turkey-cocks of God.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The great man fights the elements in his time that hinder his own greatness, in other words his own freedom and sincerity.

My time has not yet come either; some are born posthumously.

Not the intensity but the duration of high feelings makes high men.

Books for general reading always smell bad; the odor of common people hangs around them.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

For what purpose humanity is there should not even concern us: why you are here, that you should ask yourself: and if you have no ready answer, then set for yourself goals, high and noble goals, and perish in pursuit of them!

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

It is perhaps just dawning on five or six minds that physics, too, is only an interpretation and exegesis of the world (to suit us, if I may say so!) and not a world-explanation.

Everything matters. Nothing's important.
