Friedrich Nietzsche was a nineteenth century philosopher who is most remembered for his killer quotes and incredibly large mustache. The main goal of his work was aimed to uncover the fact that there is no universal truth, and that the human condition is in a constant state of overcoming our animalistic urges. He came up with many amazing quotes that we still use to this very day, including “What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger”, and “God is dead”.
