More quotes by Aristotle
I will not allow the Athenians to sin twice against philosophy.
Aristotle
Democracy is the form of government in which the free are rulers.
Aristotle
. . . Political society exists for the sake of noble actions, and not of mere companionship.
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
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
Everyone honors the wise.
Aristotle
A likely impossibility is always preferable to an unconvincing possibility.
Aristotle
Great men are always of a nature originally melancholy.
Aristotle
We have divided the Virtues of the Soul into two groups, the Virtues of the Character and the Virtues of the Intellect.
Aristotle
Character is made by many acts it may be lost by a single one.
Aristotle
Character gives us qualities, but it is in our actions — what we do — that we are happy or the reverse.
Aristotle
It will contribute towards one's object, who wishes to acquire a facility in the gaining of knowledge, to doubt judiciously.
Aristotle
Men cling to life even at the cost of enduring great misfortune.
Aristotle
Those who are not angry at the things they should be angry at are thought to be fools, and so are those who are not angry in the right way, at the right time, or with the right persons.
Aristotle
Adoration is made out of a solitary soul occupying two bodies.
Aristotle
Every man should be responsible to others, nor should any one be allowed to do just as he pleases for where absolute freedom is allowed, there is nothing to restrain the evil which is inherent in every man.
Aristotle
We can't learn without pain.
Aristotle
When we deliberate it is about means and not ends.
Aristotle
Beauty is a gift of God.
Aristotle
Selfishness doesn't consist in a love to yourself, but in a big degree of such love.
Aristotle
