German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, philologist, and Latin and Greek scholar whose work has exerted a profound influence on Western philosophy and modern intellectual history.
Man is the cruelest animal
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time
In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule
No one can construct for you the bridge upon which precisely you must cross the stream of life, no one but you yourself alone
The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind
When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago
The book of nature which we have to read is written by the finger of God
The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding
Violence can only breed more violence and suffering. Our struggle must remain non-violent and free of hatred
Let us endeavor so to live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry
The measure of a man is what he does with power
God is a circle whose center is everywhere and circumference nowhere
