“Thou goest to a woman? Do not forget thy whip!” – Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra

“Supposing truth is a woman—what then?”

–Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

“Woman wants to become self-reliant—and for that reason she is beginning to enlighten men about ‘woman as such’: this is one of the worst developments of the general uglification of Europe.”

–Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

On a toilet wall in a German university (translated):

“God is dead. Nietzsche.”

Some time afterwards:

“Nietzsche is dead. God.”
