First translation of Nietzsche's words
Description
Book Introduction
Here is a Nietzsche unknown to the world.
There's nothing glaringly wrong, but sometimes you can't just end the day feeling good and go to sleep comfortably.
There are moments when I want to be understood and comforted by someone, when I feel lost and lonely and it is difficult to express it in words.
『The First Translation of Nietzsche's Words』 offers you words of calm comfort and hope.
『The First Translation of Nietzsche's Words』 is a book containing 232 carefully selected quotes from the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche, considered one of the greatest philosophers in history, translated by Haruhiko Shiratori, a Japanese author renowned for his lucid commentary on philosophy and religion.
Breaking away from the somewhat difficult atmosphere of the existing Nietzsche, the newly compiled 『Nietzsche's Words』 has become more accessible to the public. It comes with sharp insight that transcends time and delicate sensibility that stimulates the inner self of those of us living in the modern era.
Nietzsche's philosophy, strong vitality, and firm will to move toward a more noble self are fully captured in these short, fresh prose pieces.
In Japan, since its publication in January 2010, over 2 million readers have found hope and comfort through this book, and the march continues.
Why is there such enthusiasm for "The First Translation of Nietzsche's Words"? Nietzsche's words reach readers in short prose fragments, more captivating and insightful than any other philosopher's.
This book is not about advice on creating a 'me to look good to others' or a 'me to live comfortably in society', but rather about the time to discover the true 'me' itself.
It tells us to first find a life for our complete 'self' above all else.
The voice is imbued with a realistic sensibility, sung in a calm tone that many can easily relate to, yet retains its characteristic sharpness.
These words of Nietzsche give us, living in this complex modern world, a moment of self-reflection and warm comfort.
『The First Translation of Nietzsche's Words』, which has a powerful charm that captivates the heart through Nietzsche's characteristically sharp and direct speech, contains 232 short essays divided into 10 topics.
As you begin with yourself and read the famous quotes about joy, life, the mind, friends, the world, humanity, love, intelligence, and beauty, you will feel a thrill of enlightenment that will make you slap your knee.
It is not Nietzsche's sentences themselves that excite, but rather the reader who feels excited by them is stimulated and inspired.
With the cold winter just around the corner, why not warm your heart with the 19th-century philosopher's brilliant insight, sharpness, and positivity toward life, all wrapped up in the newly translated "The Words of Nietzsche."

002 Don't worry about your reputation.
Everyone wants to know what others think of them.
We want to be thought of in a positive light, to be thought of as somewhat admirable, to be included in the ranks of important human beings.
However, it is not good to be overly concerned about your own reputation and listen closely to what others say.
Because humans are not always evaluated correctly.
Rather than getting the evaluation you want, it is more common to get an evaluation that is completely opposite to what you want.
Despite this reality, it is foolish to be overly concerned about one's reputation or evaluation and to feel needless anger or resentment.
Don't worry too much about what other people think.
Otherwise, you might end up being a person who finds pleasure and relief in being called a manager, a president, or a teacher, even though you are actually hated.
---From "Ⅰ About Myself"
036 It starts to start
The beginning of everything is dangerous.
But no matter what, if you don't start, nothing will start.
---From "Ⅲ On Life"
040 A life without any resentment
Live this life with the mindset that you would be happy to live it exactly the same way again.
---From "Ⅲ On Life"
070 The reason you feel bored is because your growth has stopped.
The more difficult it is to obtain something, the more desperately we want it.
But once it becomes yours and some time passes, it starts to feel like useless.
It is the same whether it is an object or a human being.
I'm sick of it because I've already gotten used to it.
But it is disgusting to oneself.
I get sick of things that I have and they don't change within me.
That is, they lose interest because their feelings about the object do not change.
After all, the more people don't continue to grow, the more easily they get bored.
Rather, a person who is constantly growing as a human being will never feel bored even if he or she has the same things because he or she is constantly changing.
---From “Ⅳ On the Mind”
126 The courage to take responsibility for your dreams
Why do you take responsibility for your mistakes, but not your dreams? Aren't they your dreams, no one else's? Shouldn't you be proud of them, saying, "This is my dream?" Is it because you're so weak, or because you lack courage? If you're unwilling to take responsibility for your dreams in the first place, they will never come true.
