What really makes one indigna...

What really makes one indignant about suffering isn't the thing itself but the senselessness of it.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

No more fiction, for now we c...

No more fiction, for now we calculate; but that we may calculate, we had to make fiction first.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Those who are bent on revolut...

Those who are bent on revolutionizing society may be divided into those who seek something for themselves thereby and those who seek something for their children and grandchildren.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

We should conserve evil just as we should conserve the forests. It is true that by thinning and clearing the forests the earth grew warmer.

Robinson had a servant even better than Friday: His name was Crusoe.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Man is a rope, tied between beast and overman — a rope over an abyss.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

I do not know what meaning classical studies could have for our time if they were not untimely that is to say, acting counter to our time and thereby acting on our time and, let us hope, for the benefit of a time to come.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Speaking of Georges Bizet: His music has the tang of sunny climates, their bracing air, their clearness. It voices a sensibility hitherto unknown to us.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Joy wants the eternity of all things, wants deep, wants deep eternity.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Such men alone are my readers...

Such men alone are my readers, my proper readers, my preordained readers. Of what account are the rest? The rest are simply... humanity. One must be superior to humanity in power, in loftiness of soul- in contempt.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

To demand of strength that it...

To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The noble type of man feels h...

The noble type of man feels himself to be the determiner of values, he does not need to be approved of, he judges 'what harms me is harmful in itself', he knows himself to be that which in general accords honour to things, he creates values.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The drive toward the formatio...

The drive toward the formation of metaphors is the fundamental human drive, which one cannot for a single instant dispense with in thought , for one would thereby dispense with man himself.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

You say, it's dark. And in truth, I did place a cloud before your sun. But do you not see how the edges of the cloud are already glowing and turning light.

The danger of our culture.- We belong to a period of which the culture is in danger of being destroyed by the appliances of culture.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Men seldom persevere in a vocation unless they believe or can convince themselves that it is fundamentally more important than anyother calling. Women are the same with their lovers.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Society tames the wolf into a dog. And man is the most domesticated animal of all.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

A good aphorism is too hard f...

A good aphorism is too hard for the tooth of time, and is not worn away by all the centuries, although it serves as food for every epoch. Hence it is the greatest paradox in literature, the imperishable in the midst of change, the nourishment which always remains highly valued, as salt does, and never becomes stupid like salt.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

One should adpot only those s...

One should adpot only those situations in which one is in no need of sham virtues, but rather, like the tight-rope dancer on his tight rope, in which one must either fall or stand--or escape.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The various languages placed ...

The various languages placed side by side show that with words it is never a question of truth, never a question of adequate expression; otherwise, there would not be so many languages. The 'thing in itself' (which is precisely what the pure truth, apart from any of its consequences, would be) is likewise something quite incomprehensible to the creator of language and something not in the least worth striving for.
