More quotes by Aristotle

Aristotle

Aristotle
We are not angry with people we fear or respect, as long as we fear or respect them you cannot be afraid of a person and also at the same time angry with him.
Aristotle
If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be best attained when all persons alike share in government to the utmost.
Aristotle
It is the active exercise of our faculties in conformity with virtue that causes happiness, and the opposite activities its opposite.
Aristotle
You should never think without an image.
Aristotle
Those who cannot bravely face danger are the slaves of their attackers.
Aristotle
No state will be well administered unless the middle class holds sway.
Aristotle
Earthworms are the intenstines of the soil.
Aristotle
Of means of persuading by speaking there are three species: some consist in the character of the speaker others in the disposing the hearer a certain way others in the thing itself which is said, by reason of its proving, or appearing to prove the point.
Aristotle
