We do not belong to those who...

We do not belong to those who only get their thought from books, or at the prompting of books, -- it is our custom to think in the open air, walking, leaping, climbing, or dancing on lonesome mountains by preference, or close to the sea, where even the paths become thoughtful.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

You cannot learn to fly by fl...

You cannot learn to fly by flying. First you must learn to walk, to run, to climb, to dance.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Just as a waterfall grows slo...

Just as a waterfall grows slower and more lightly suspended as it plunges down, so the great man of action tends to act with greater calmness than his tempestuous desires prior to the deed would lead one to expect.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Forgetting: that is a divine ...

Forgetting: that is a divine capacity. And whoever aspires to the heights and wants to fly must cast off much that is heavy and make himself light--I call it a divine capacity for lightness.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

If one seeks relief from unbe...

If one seeks relief from unbearable pressure, one is to eat hashish.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

What is good? All that height...

What is good? All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself. What is bad? All that is born of weakness. What is happiness? The feeling that power is growing, that resistance is overcome.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Those who show pity and are a...

Those who show pity and are always ready to help during times of trouble are seldom the same ones who rejoice in our joy: when others are happy they have nothing to do, they become superfluous and lose their feeling of superiority, and so they easily show their displeasure.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

We seldom break our leg so lo...

We seldom break our leg so long as life continues a toilsome upward climb. The danger comes when we begin to take things easily and choose the convenient paths.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Cows sometimes wear an expres...

Cows sometimes wear an expression resembling wonderment arrested on its way to becoming a question. In the eye of superior intelligence, on the other hand, lies the nil admirari spread out like the monotony of a cloudless sky.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

There is a great ladder of re...

There is a great ladder of religious cruelty, and, of its many rungs, three are the most important. People used to make human sacrifices to their god, perhaps even sacrificing those they loved the best ... Then, during the moral epoch of humanity, people sacrificed the strongest instincts they had, their 'nature,' to their god... Finally: what was left to be sacrificed? ... Didn't people have to sacrifice God himself and worship rocks, stupidity, gravity, fate, or nothingness out of sheer cruelty to themselves?

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

But what if pleasure and pain...

But what if pleasure and pain should be so closely connected that he who wants the greatest possible amount of the one must also have the greatest possible amount of the other, that he who wants to experience the "heavenly high jubilation," must also be ready to be "sorrowful unto death"?

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Consider the cattle, grazing ...

Consider the cattle, grazing as they pass you by. They do not know what is meant by yesterday or today, they leap about, eat, rest, digest, leap about again, and so from morn till night and from day to day, fettered to the moment and its pleasure or displeasure, and thus neither melancholy nor bored. [...] A human being may well ask an animal: 'Why do you not speak to me of your happiness but only stand and gaze at me?' The animal would like to answer, and say, 'The reason is I always forget what I was going to say' - but then he forgot this answer too, and stayed silent.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

It is difficult to live among people because silence is so difficult.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Buddha says: "Do not flatter ...

Buddha says: "Do not flatter your benefactor!". Let one repeat this saying in a Christian church : it immediately purifies the air of everything Christian.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

I hate you most because you a...

I hate you most because you attract, but are not strong enough to pull me to you.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Two great European narcotics, alcohol and Christianity.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Profundity of thought belongs to youth, clarity of thought to old age.

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

What is the vanity of the vainest man compared with the vanity which the most modest possesses when, in the midst of nature and the world, he feels himself to be man!

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

The broad effects which can b...

The broad effects which can be obtained by punishment in man and beast, are the increase of fear, the sharpening of the sense of cunning, the mastery of the desires; so it is that punishment tames man, but does not make him "better.".

Friedrich Nietzsche 2803 quotes

Every man has his price. This...

Every man has his price. This is not true. But for every man there exists a bait which he cannot resist swallowing.
