More quotes by Aristotle
Consider pleasures as they depart, not as they come.
Aristotle
We are what we repeatedly do... excellence, therefore, isn't just an act, but a habit and life isn't just a series of events, but an ongoing process of self-definition.
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
A goal gets us motivated,while a good habit keeps us stay motivated.
Aristotle
Man is by nature a political animal.
Aristotle
The man who confers a favour would rather not be repaid in the same coin.
Aristotle
It is through wonder that men now begin and originally began to philosophize wondering in the first place at obvious perplexities, and then by gradual progression raising questions about the greater matters too.
Aristotle
But then in what way are things called good? They do not seem to be like the things that only chance to have the same name. Are goods one then by being derived from one good or by all contributing to one good, or are they rather one by analogy? Certainly as sight is in the body, so is reason in the soul, and so on in other cases.
Aristotle
The energy of the mind is the essence of life.
Aristotle
Find the good. Seek the Unity. Ignore the divisions among us.
Aristotle
Liars when they speak the truth are not believed.
Aristotle
Thus every action must be due to one or other of seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reasoning, anger, or appetite.
Aristotle
We praise a man who feels angry on the right grounds and against the right persons and also in the right manner at the right moment and for the right length of time.
Aristotle
We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence. But they hesitate, waiting for the other fellow to make the first move-and he, in turn, waits for you.
Aristotle
We should venture on the study of every kind of animal without distaste for each and all will reveal to us something natural and something beautiful.
Aristotle
What is the essence of life? To serve others and to do good.
Aristotle
Now the soul of man is divided into two parts, one of which has a rational principle in itself, and the other, not having a rational principle in itself, is able to obey such a principle. And we call a man in any way good because he has the virtues of these two parts.
Aristotle
Men become richer not only by increasing their existing wealth but also by decreasing their expenditure.
Aristotle
Whether we call it sacrifice, or poetry, or adventure, it is always the same voice that calls.
Aristotle
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
Aristotle
