Nietzsche



What is done out of Love is beyond Good and Evil.

Anyone who fights with monsters should take care that he does not in the process become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired.

There is no such thing as moral phenomena, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.

To recognize untruth as a condition of life--that certainly means resisting accustomed value feelings in a dangerous way; and a philosophy that risks this would by that token alone place itself beyond good and evil.

What we do in dreams we also do when we are awake: we invent and fabricate the person with whom we associate — and immediately forget we have done so.


The vanity of others is only counter to our taste when it is counter to our vanity.
