Empowerment

Women are the only exploited group in history to have been idealized into powerlessness.

A witty woman is a treasure’ a witty beauty is a power .

I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. To enter ordinary relationships. I want ecstasy. I am a neurotic -- in the sense that I live in my world. I will not adjust myself to the world. I am adjusted to myself.

What is good? All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself in man.

This is the age of the individual and there is no reason to believe that this focus of mankind is likely to change in the foreseeable future. Hence, the mission is to put individualism inside a wide context and to give it meaning and a sense of direction; to empower it – but authentically this time.

A man who wills commands something within himself that renders obedience, or that he believes renders obedience.

Psychology has falsified love as surrender and altruism, while it is an appropriation or a bestowal following from a super-abundance of personality. Only the most complete persons can love. The depersonalized and objective are the worst lovers.

You look up when you wish to be exalted. And I look down because I am exalted.

The overman...Who has organized the chaos of his passions, given style to his character, and become creative. Aware of life's terrors, he affirms life without resentment.

If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and make a change.

To wish to be well is part of becoming well.

Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. It is better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass.

Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got.

I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.

A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.

The question is not who is going to let me, it’s who is going to stop me.

There is force in the universe, which, if we permit it, will flow through us and produce miraculous results.

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.

One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.

To succeed, jump as quickly at opportunities as you do at conclusions.

Few things help an individual more than to place responsibility upon him and to let him know that you trust him.

The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own.

Every time we liberate a woman, we liberate a man.
