Aristotle
Melancholy men, of all others, are the most witty.
Aristotle
A man who examines each subject from a philosophical standpoint cannot neglect them: he has to omit nothing, and state the truth about each topic.
Aristotle
No one praises happiness as one praises justice, but we call it a 'blessing,' deeming it something higher and more divine than things we praise.
Aristotle
Justice therefore demands that no one should do more ruling than being ruled, but that all should have their turn.
Aristotle
