More quotes by Aristotle
The coward calls the brave man rash, the rash man calls him a coward.
Aristotle
I was not alone when I was in Goofy hell
Aristotle
We are what we do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.
Aristotle
In justice is all virtues found in sum.
Aristotle
Even if we could suppose the citizen body to be virtuous, without each of them being so, yet the latter would be better, for in the virtue of each the virtue of all is involved.
Aristotle
All flatterers are mercenary, and all low-minded men are flatterers.
Aristotle
The virtue as the art consecrates itself constantly to what's difficult to do, and the harder the task, the shinier the success.
Aristotle
Whether we will philosophize or we won't philosophize, we must philosophize.
Aristotle
...happiness is an activity and a complete utilization of virtue, not conditionally but absolutely.
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
1 is not prime, by definition. 2 is an unnatural prime, 4 is an unnatural prime, and 6 is an unnatural prime. All other natural primes cannot be unnatural primes.
Aristotle
To die, and thus avoid poverty or love, or anything painful, is not the part of a brave man, but rather of a coward for it is cowardice to avoid trouble, and the suicide does not undergo death because it is honorable, but in order to avoid evil.
Aristotle
Imagination is a sort of faint perception.
Aristotle
Dignity does not consist in possessing honors, but in deserving them.
Aristotle
It is the mark of an educated man to look for precision in each class of things just so far as the nature of the subject admits
Aristotle
If you string together a set of speeches expressive of character, and well finished in point and diction and thought, you will not produce the essential tragic effect nearly so well as with a play which, however deficient in these respects, yet has a plot and artistically constructed incidents.
Aristotle
The beginning of reform is not so much to equalize property as to train the noble sort of natures not to desire more, and to prevent the lower from getting more.
Aristotle
Peace is more difficult than war.
Aristotle
Time crumbles things everything grows old under the power of Time and is forgotten through the lapse of Time.
Aristotle
Fortune favours the bold.
Aristotle
