Friedrich Nietzsche Quotes About Dying

• One has to pay dearly for immortality; one has to die several times while one is still alive.

  Friedrich Nietzsche

  Death, Hero, Dying

• Anything which is a living and not a dying body... will have to be an incarnate will to power, it will strive to grow, spread, seize, become predominant - not from any morality or immorality but because it is living and because life simply is will to power... 'Exploitation'... belongs to the essence of what lives, as a basic organic function; it is a consequence of the will to power, which is after all the will to life.
