More quotes by Aristotle

Aristotle
The secret to humor is surprise.
Aristotle
Even that some people try deceived me many times ... I will not fail to believe that somewhere, someone deserves my trust.
Aristotle
And yet the true creator is necessity, which is the mother of invention.

A thing chosen always as an end and never as a means we call absolutely final. Now happiness above all else appears to be absolutely final in this sense, since we always choose it for its own sake and never as a means to something else.
Aristotle
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
Aristotle
For often, when one is asleep, there is something in consciousness which declares that what then presents itself is but a dream.

Aristotle
If every tool, when ordered, or even of its own accord, could do the work that befits it... then there would be no need either of apprentices for the master workers or of slaves for the lords.
Aristotle
Teachers, who educate children, deserve more honour than parents, who merely gave them birth for the latter provided mere life, while the former ensure a good life.
Aristotle
Also, that which is desirable in itself is more desirable than what is desirable per accidens.
Aristotle
All food must be capable of being digested, and that what produces digestion is warmth that is why everything that has soul in it possesses warmth.
Aristotle
Hence both women and children must be educated with an eye to the constitution, if indeed it makes any difference to the virtue of a city-state that its children be virtuous, and its women too. And it must make a difference, since half the free population are women, and from children come those who participate in the constitution.
Aristotle
Opinion involves belief (for without belief in what we opine we cannot have an opinion), and in the brutes though we often find imagination we never find belief.
Aristotle
