"It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it; every complaint already contains revenge"
- Friedrich Nietzsche
About this Quote
This quote by Friedrich Nietzsche recommends that when someone suffers or experiences pain or hardship, they often feel the need to make another person spend for it. A problem, or expressing one's dissatisfaction, is currently an act of vengeance in itself. In other words, according to Nietzsche, people tend to look for revenge when they experience difficulty or suffering.
"What is real is not the external form, but the essence of things... it is impossible for anyone to express anything essentially real by imitating its exterior surface"
