Nietzsche Quotes: 

God is dead, and we have killed him. 

“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music,” is a quote which comes from The Gay Science, one of Nietzsche’s most famous works. The science in question here is poetry. The phrase which The Gay Science takes as its title refers to an old Provencal expression, which Nietzsche references explicitly. Here, poetry is taken as an ethical way of being. The quote we are addressing here extends the metaphor of poetry into a way of living more generally.

To be more specific, this quote suggests that some people, due to their limited perspectives or adherence to societal norms, might not be able to comprehend the profound beauty and authenticity of those who live life passionately and authentically.

“To Live Is to Suffer, to Survive Is to Find Some Meaning in the Suffering.”

“That Which Does Not Kill Us Makes Us Stronger.”

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.

Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.
