Nietzsche

It is the stillest words that bring on the storm. Thoughts that come on doves' feet guide the world.

It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages

There are no facts, only interpretations.

We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the tone of voice in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.

For every man there exists a bait which he cannot resist swallowing.

He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.  

The word "Christianity" is already a misunderstanding - in reality there has been only one Christian, and he died on the Cross.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

Linguistic danger to spiritual freedom.-- Every word is a prejudice.

Which is it: is man one of God's blunders, or is God one of man's blunders?

We forget our guilt when we have confessed it to another, but the other does not usually forget it.

We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.

Blessed are the forgetful: for they get the better even of their blunders.

Whoever has provoked men to rage against him has always gained a party in his favor, too.

If there is something to pardon in everything, there is also something to condemn
