120 Quotes About Nietzsche

  • Author Nietzsche Friedrichlevy Oscarkennedy J M
  • Quote

    O socialismo é o fantasioso irmão mais jovem do quase decrépito despotismo, do qual quer herdar; suas aspirações são, portanto, no sentido mais profundo, reacionárias. Pois ele deseja uma plenitude de poder estatal como só a teve alguma vez o despotismo, e até mesmo supera todo o passado por aspirar ao aniquilamento formal do indivíduo: o qual lhe aparece como um injustificado luxo da natureza e deve ser transformado e melhorado por ele em um órgão da comunidade adequado a seus fins.

    Why don't you come down that hall with me,” she asked, “Let me show you something that you probably haven't seen before.”Nietzsche nodded again. He didn't understand what was happening but he knew that it was something he wanted. So they stood up. She led him to a room at the end of the hall by his hand.And soon after, she gave him syphilis.

  • Quote

    Er liebte nichts als seine Freiheit, sein ewiges Studententum, und zog es vor, lebenslänglich der Leidende, der Unberechenbare und störrische Einzelgänger zu sein, der geniale Narr und Nihilist, statt den Weg der Einordnung in die Hierarchie zu gehen und zum Frieden zu gelangen.

  • Quote

    Nietzsche was a revelation to me. I felt that there was someone quite different from what I had been taught. I read him with a great passion and broke with my life, left my job in the asylum, left France: I had the feeling I had been trapped. Through Nietzsche, I had become a stranger to all that.

    In his treatise on the battles between the gods underlying ancient Dionysian theatre, the young Nietzsche notes: 'Alas! The magic of these struggles is such, that he who sees them must also take part in them.' Similarly, an anthropology of the practising life is infected by its subject. Dealing with practices, asceticisms and exercises, whether or not they are declared as such, the theorist inevitably encounters his own inner constitution, beyond affirmation and denial.

  • Quote

    Acesta este pasul pe care Zarathustra nu l-a putut face: pasul către „omul cel mai urât”, omul adevărat. Împotrivirea şi frica faţă de el dovedesc cât de mare este puterea de atracţie şi de seducţie a ceea ce este inferior. Separarea de inferior nu este o soluţie.

    Sombres, dites-vous? Mais posez-vous la question docteur : pourquoi tous les grands philosophes sont-ils sombres? Demandez-vous qui sont les gens satisfaits, rassurés et éternellement joyeux! Laissez-moi vous donner la réponse : ce sont ceux qui ont une mauvaise vue ― la populace et les enfants!

    Hazin tarafı şu ki, bu cins azapları bütün dünya bir asır evvel yaşadı, bitirdi. Hegel, Nietzsche, Marx geldiler, geçtiler. Dostoyevski Suat'tan seksen sene evvel bu azabı çekti. Bizim için yeni nedir bilir misiniz? Ne Eluard'ın şiiri, ne de Comte Stravoguine'in azabıdır. Bizim için yeni, en ufak Türk köyünde, Anadolu'nun en ücra köşesinde bu akşam olan cinayet, arazi kavgası veya boşanma hadisesidir. Bilmem, fikrimi anlayabiliyor musunuz?

    But is eternity an alternative to life? Isn't it, on the contrary, the case that it is when one wants everything to be eternal that one most loves life and the world.
