"Humanity has learned to call pity a virtue, when in the entire superior moral system it is considered a weakness."

Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

“Kierkegaard and Nietzsche are among those who bring to philosophy new means of expression. Their objection to Hegel is that he does not go beyond false movement — the abstract logical movement of 'mediation'. They want to put metaphysics in motion, in action.”
— Deleuze

"Physiologists should bethink themselves before putting down the instinct of self-preservation as the cardinal instinct of an organic being. A living thing seeks above all to discharge its strength: 'self-preservation' is only one of the results thereof. — Let us beware of superfluous teleological principles! — one of which is the whole concept of 'self-preservation.'"
— Nietzsche, Will to Power

"The feeling of being surcharged, the feeling accompanying an increase in strength, quite apart from the utility of the struggle, is the actual progress: from these feelings the will to war is first derived."
— Nietzsche

"Dangerous Books. — A man says: “Judging from my own case, I find that this book is harmful.” Let him but wait, and perhaps one day he will confess that the book did him a great service by thrusting forward and bringing to light the hidden disease of his soul. — Altered opinions alter not at all (or very little) the character of a man: but they illuminate individual facets of his personality, which hitherto, in another constellation of opinions, had remained dark and unrecognisable."
— Nietzsche

THE LAST DESIRE
— Nietzsche

So would I die
As then I saw him die,
The friend, who like a god
Into my darkling youth
Threw lightning’s light and fire:
Buoyant yet deep was he,
Yea, in the battle’s strife
With the gay dancer’s heart.
Amid the warriors
His was the lightest heart,
Amid the conquerors
His brow was dark with thought —
He was a fate poised on his destiny: Unbending, casting thought into the past
And future, such was he.
Fearful beneath the weight of victory,
Yet chanting, as both victory and death
Came hand and hand to him.
Commanding even as he lay in death,
And his command that man annihilate.
So would I die
As then I saw him die,
Victorious and destroying.

"Pleasure appears with the feeling of power.
Happiness means that power and triumph have entered into our consciousness.
Progress is the strengthening of the type, the ability to exercise great will-power: everything else is a misunderstanding and a danger."
— Nietzsche

“Difficult tasks are a privilege to the Overmen; to play with burdens that crush others, a recreation. Knowledge—a form of asceticism. They are the most honorable kind of man: that does not preclude their being the most cheerful and the kindliest.”
— Nietzsche

"A rich and powerful soul not only gets over painful and even terrible losses, deprivations, robberies, and insults: it actually leaves such dark infernos in possession of still greater plenitude and power."
— Nietzsche

“In Nietzsche's metaphysics, will to power is a richer name for the overused and vacuous term 'becoming.' That is why Nietzsche says that the viewpoint of 'value' is the viewpoint of conditions of preservation and enhancement ... within 'becoming.'"
— Heidegger

Nietzsche: Herald of the Infinite Empire

Constantin von Hoffmeister conjures Nietzsche as a fierce storm crashing over Europe, summoning the Übermensch to crush the shallow, leveling lies of democracy, to revive Germany's ancient spirit, and to forge an empire of unyielding strength and ruthless grandeur, beyond the reach of modern mediocrity.
