Aristotle
The business of every art is to bring something into existence, and the practice of an art involves the study of how to bring into existence something which is capable of having such an existence and has its efficient cause in the maker and not in itself.
Aristotle
The intelligence consists not only in the knowledge but also in the skill to apply the knowledge into practice.
Aristotle
A body in motion can maintain this motion only if it remains in contact with a mover.
Aristotle
You should never think without an image.
Aristotle
Self-sufficiency is both a good and an absolute good.
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
The best friend is he that, when he wishes a person's good, wishes it for that person's own sake.
Aristotle
Therefore, even the lover of myth is a philosopher for myth is composed of wonder.
Aristotle
