  • Our destiny rules over us, even when we are not yet aware of it; it is the future that makes laws for our today.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2012). “Human, All-Too-Human: Parts One and Two”, p.12, Courier Corporation
  • Give me today, for once, the worst throw of your dice, destiny. Today I transmute everything into gold.

  • Oh, how much is today hidden by science! Oh, how much it is expected to hide!

    1887 The Genealogy of Morals, essay 3,'What Do Ascetic Ideals Mean?'
  • What does it matter whether I am shown to be right! I am right too much!--And he who laughs best today will also laugh last.

  • Consider the cattle, grazing as they pass you by. They do not know what is meant by yesterday or today, they leap about, eat, rest, digest, leap about again, and so from morn till night and from day to day, fettered to the moment and its pleasure or displeasure, and thus neither melancholy nor bored. [...] A human being may well ask an animal: 'Why do you not speak to me of your happiness but only stand and gaze at me?' The animal would like to answer, and say, 'The reason is I always forget what I was going to say' - but then he forgot this answer too, and stayed silent.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1997). “Nietzsche: Untimely Meditations”, p.98, Cambridge University Press
  • Not their love of humanity, but the impotence of their love, prevents the Christians of today - burning us.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2016). “BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL - Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future: The Critique of the Traditional Morality and the Philosophy of the Past”, p.50, e-artnow
  • What we know oman today is limited precisely by the extent to which we have regarded him as a machine.

    Men  
  • Only sick music makes money today.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2010). “The Birth of Tragedy and The Case of Wagner”, p.206, Vintage
  • What was formerly merely sickly now becomes indecent : it is indecent to be a Christian today.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2016). “The Antichrist”, p.66, Friederich Nietzsche
  • Nothing seems to me to be rarer today then genuine hypocrisy. I greatly suspect that this plant finds the mild atmosphere of our culture unendurable. Hypocrisy has its place in the ages of strong belief: in which even when one is compelled to exhibit a different belief one does not abandon the belief one already has.

  • You want to be paid as well, you virtuous! You want reward for virtue, and heaven for earth, and eternity for your today?

  • I change too quickly: my today refutes my yesterday. When I ascend I often jump over steps, and no step forgives me that.

  • Whom do I hate most among the rabble of today? The socialist rabble, the chandala apostles, who undermine the instinct, the pleasure, the worker's sense of satisfaction with his small existence-who make him envious, who teach him revenge. The source of wrong is never unequal rights but the claim of "equal" rights.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1977). “The Portable Nietzsche”, p.390, Penguin
  • Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.

    Men  
    Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1984). “Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits”, p.171, U of Nebraska Press
  • The same relation exists between merchant and pirate, who for a long period are one and the same person: where the one function appears to them inadvisable, they exercise the other.

    "Human, All Too Human".
  • On the mountains of truth you can never climb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow.

  • I love those who do not know how to live for today.

  • More and more it seems to me that the philosopher, being of necessity a man of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, has always found himself, and had to find himself, in contradiction to his today: his enemy was ever the ideal of today. So far all these extraordinary furtherers of men whom one calls philosophers, though they themselves have rarely felt like friends of wisdom but rather like disagreeable fools and dangerous question marks, have found their task, their hard, unwanted, inescapable task, but eventually also the greatness of their task, in being the bad conscience of their time.

  • Now we will no longer concede so easily that anyone has the truth; the rigorous methods of inquiry have spread sufficient distrust and caution, so that we experience every man who represents opinions violently in word and deed as any enemy of our present culture, or at least as a backward person. And in fact, the fervor about having the truth counts very little today in relation to that other fervor, more gentle and silent, to be sure, for seeking the truth, a search that does not tire of learning afresh and testing anew.

    "Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits". Book by Friedrich Nietzsche, transl. by Helen Zimmern, Section IX, "Man Alone with Himself"/ aphorism 633, 1909-1913.
  • Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god; but who knows my god?

  • Morality in Europe today is herd-morality

  • Even today many educated people think that the victory of Christianity over Greek philosophy is a proof of the superior truth of the former - although in this case it was only the coarser and more violent that conquered the more spiritual and delicate. So far as superior truth is concerned, it is enough to observe that the awakening sciences have allied themselves point by point with the philosophy of Epicurus, but point by point rejected Christianity.

    Friedrich Nietzsche, R. J. Hollingdale (1996). “Nietzsche: Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits”, p.44, Cambridge University Press
  • On all the walls, wherever walls exist, I will inscribe this eternal indictment of Christianity--I have letters to make even blindmen see.... I call Christianity the single great curse, the single great innermost depravity, the single great instinct of revenge, for which no means is poisonous, secretive, subterranean, small enough--I call it mankind's single immortal blemish.... And we reckon time from the dies nefastus with which this calamity arose--following Christianity's first day!--Why not following its last day, instead?--Following today?--Transvaluation of all values!

  • Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2016). “Human, All Too Human A Book for Free Spirits”, p.24, Friedrich Nietzsche
  • He who laughs best today, will also laughs last.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (2016). “Twilight of the Idols”, p.22, Friedrich Nietzsche
  • Today a man of knowledge might well feel as though he were God transformed into an animal.

    Men  
  • All that the world most needs today, is combined in the most seductive manner in his art, — the three great stimulants of exhausted people: brutality, artificiality and innocence (idiocy).

    "Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche".
  • A book calls for pen, ink, and a writing desk; today the rule is that pen, ink, and a writing desk call for a book.

  • Historical refutation as the definitive refutation.- In former times, one sought to prove that there is no God - today one indicates how the belief that there is a God arose and how this belief acquired its weight and importance: a counter-proof that there is no God thereby becomes superfluous.- When in former times one had refuted the 'proofs of the existence of God' put forward, there always remained the doubt whether better proofs might not be adduced than those just refuted: in those days atheists did not know how to make a clean sweep.

  • Even today a crude sort of persecution is all that is required to create an honorable name for any sect, no matter how indifferent in itself.
