All FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE Quotes about “Devil”

“Everything good is the transmutation of something evil: every god has a devil for a father.”
“I would only believe in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravityâ€”through him all things fall. Not by wrath does one kill but by laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!”
“Has there ever been anything filthier on earth than the saints in the wilderness? Around them was not only the devil loose around them- but also the swine.”
“And I offer you this parable: Not a few who sought to cast out their devil entered into the swine themselves.”
“The Devil has the broadest perspectives for God; therefore, he keeps so far away from God -- the Devil being the most ancient friend of wisdom”
“We have to be careful that in throwing out the devil, we don't throw out the best part of ourselves.”
“When I was twelve years old I thought up an odd trinity: namely, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Devil. My inference wasthat God, in contemplating himself, created the second person of the godhead; but that, in order to be able to contemplate himself, he had to contemplate, and thus to create, his opposite.--With this I began to do philosophy.”
“You highest men whom I have ever seen! This is my suspicion about you and my secret laughter: I guess that you would call my superman--a devil!”
