More quotes by Aristotle
A friend is simply one soul in two bodies.
Aristotle
It is possible to fail in many ways...while to succeed is possible only in one way.
Aristotle
The structural unity of the parts is such that, if any one of them is displaced or removed, the whole will be disjointed and disĀturbed. For a thing whose presence or absence makes no visible difference is not an organic part of the whole.
Aristotle
No one chooses what does not rest with himself, but only what he thinks can be attained by his own act.
Aristotle
Democracy is the form of government in which the free are rulers.
Aristotle
.. for desire is like a wild beast, and anger perverts rulers and the very best of men. Hence law is intelligence without appetition.
Aristotle
When several villages are united in a single complete community, large enough to be nearly or quite self-sufficing, the state comes into existence, originating in the bare needs of life, and continuing in existence for the sake of a good life.
Aristotle
Opinion involves belief (for without belief in what we opine we cannot have an opinion), and in the brutes though we often find imagination we never find belief.
Aristotle
When you are lonely, when you feel yourself an alien in the world, play Chess. This will raise your spirits and be your counselor in war
Aristotle
Friendship is essentially a partnership.
Aristotle
For what one has to learn to do, we learn by doing.
Aristotle
In all things which have a plurality of parts, and which are not a total aggregate but a whole of some sort distinct from the parts, there is some cause.
Aristotle
Men pay most attention to what is their own: they care less for what is common or, at any rate, they care for it only to the extent to which each is individually concerned.
Aristotle
Anything whose presence or absence makes no discernible difference is no essential part of the whole.
Aristotle
Suppose, then, that all men were sick or deranged, save one or two of them who were healthy and of right mind. It would then be the latter two who would be thought to be sick and deranged and the former not!
Aristotle
It is not enough to win a war it is more important to organize the peace.
Aristotle
Why do men seek honour? Surely in order to confirm the favorable opinion they have formed of themselves.
Aristotle
Wit is well-bred insolence.
Aristotle
It is the mark of an educated mind to expect that amount of exactness which the nature of the particular subject admits. It is equally unreasonable to accept merely probable conclusions from a mathematician and to demand strict demonstration from an orator.
Aristotle
Some believe it to be just friends wanting, as if to be healthy enough to wish health.
Aristotle
