All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind.
Aristotle
The beginning, as the proverb says, is half the whole.
Aristotle
You should never think without an image.
Aristotle
To run away from trouble is a form of cowardice and, while it is true that the suicide braves death, he does it not for some noble object but to escape some ill.
Aristotle
The good of man is the active exercise of his soul's faculties. This exercise must occupy a complete lifetime. One swallow does make a spring, nor does one fine day. Excellence is a habit, not an event.
Aristotle
Justice is that virtue of the soul which is distributive according to desert.
Aristotle
Hippodamus, son of Euryphon, a native of Miletus, invented the art of planning and laid out the street plan of Piraeus.

Aristotle
Why is it that all men who are outstanding in philosophy, poetry or the arts are melancholic?
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
Prudence as well as Moral Virtue determines the complete performance of a man's proper function: Virtue ensures the rightness of the end we aim at, Prudence ensures the rightness of the means we adopt to gain that end.
Aristotle
Cruel is the strife of brothers.
Aristotle
The weak are always anxious for justice and equality. The strong pay no heed to either.
Aristotle
Fate of empires depends on the education of youth
Aristotle
The greatest crimes are caused by surfeit, not by want.
Aristotle
When you feel yourself lacking something, send your thoughts towards your Intimate and search for the Divinity that lives within you.
Aristotle
He who sees things grow from the beginning will have the best view of them.
Aristotle
Every virtue is a mean between two extremes, each of which is a vice.
Aristotle
Life cannot be lived, and understood, simultaneously.
Aristotle
Phronimos, possessing practical wisdom . But the only virtue special to a ruler is practical wisdom all the others must be possessed, so it seems, both by rulers and ruled. The virtue of a person being ruled is not practical wisdom but correct opinion he is rather like a person who makes the pipes, while the ruler is the one who can play them.
Aristotle
