Quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche 3

Friedrich Nietzsche, born Oct. 15, 1844, Röcken, Saxony, Prussia, died Aug. 25, 1900, Weimar, Thuringian States. German philosopher who reasoned that Christianity's emphasis on the afterlife makes its believers less able to cope with earthly life. He argued that the ideal human, the Übermensch, would be able to channel passions creatively instead of suppressing them. His written works include Beyond Good and Evil (1886) and Thus Spake Zarathustra (1883-1892).

  • Madness is something rare in individuals- but in groups, parties, peoples, ages it is the rule.

  • We have no organ at all for knowledge, for truth: we know, or believe or imagine, precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called usefulness is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.

  • The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.

  • What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind?- They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
