More quotes by Aristotle
Those that know, do. Those that understand, teach.
Aristotle
Love well, be loved and do something of value.
Aristotle
The first principle of all action is leisure.
Aristotle
When Pleasure is at the bar the jury is not impartial.
Aristotle
Democracy is the form of government in which the free are rulers.
Aristotle
Without virtue it is difficult to bear gracefully the honors of fortune.
Aristotle
What is the essence of life? To serve others and to do good.
Aristotle
He who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god.
Aristotle
If 'bounded by a surface' is the definition of body there cannot be an infinite body either intelligible or sensible.
Aristotle
For pleasure is a state of soul, and to each man that which he is said to be a lover of is pleasant.
Aristotle
The souls ability to nourish itself lies in the heart.
Aristotle
Even if you must have regard to wealth, in order to secure leisure, yet it is surely a bad thing that the greatest offices, such as those of kings and generals, should be bought. The law which allows this abuse makes wealth of more account than virtue, and the whole state becomes avaricious.
Aristotle
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Aristotle
Men must be able to engage in business and go to war, but leisure and peace are better they must do what is necessary and indeed what is useful, but what is honorable is better. On such principles children and persons of every age which requires education should be trained.
Aristotle
To run away from trouble is a form of cowardice and, while it is true that the suicide braves death, he does it not for some noble object but to escape some ill.
Aristotle
Happiness is a thing honored and perfect. This seems to be borne out by the fact that it is a first principle or starting-point, since all other things that all men do are done for its sake and that which is the first principle and cause of things good we agree to be something honorable and divine.
Aristotle
Democracy arose from men's thinking that if they are equal in any respect they are equal absolutely.
Aristotle
Character gives us qualities, but it is in our actions — what we do — that we are happy or the reverse.
Aristotle
Youth loves honor and victory more than money.
Aristotle
These virtues are formed in man by his doing the actions ... The good of man is a working of the soul in the way of excellence in a complete life.
Aristotle
