All FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE Quotes about “Boredom”

“Is life not a thousand times too short for us to bore ourselves?”
“Against boredom even gods struggle in vain.”
“Many people, especially women, never experience boredom because they have never learned to work properly.”
“A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.”
“God created woman. And boredom did indeed cease from that moment-but many other things ceased as well!”
“Against boredom the gods themselves fight in vain.”
“One receives as reward for much ennui, despondency, boredom -such as a solitude without friends, books, duties, passions must bring with it -those quarter-hours of profoundest contemplation within oneself and nature. He who completely entrenches himself against boredom also entrenches himself against himself: he will never get to drink the strongest refreshing draught from his own innermost fountain.”
“With deep men, as with deep wells, it takes a long time for anything that falls into them to hit bottom. Onlookers, who almost never wait long enough, readily suppose that such men are callous and unresponsive--or even boring.”
