More quotes by Aristotle

Image
A friend to all is a friend to none.
Aristotle
Image
These two rational faculties may be designated the Scientific Faculty and the Calculative Faculty respectively since calculation is the same as deliberation, and deliberation is never exercised about things that are invariable, so that the Calculative Faculty is a separate part of the rational half of the soul.
Aristotle
Image
Aristocracy is that form of government in which education and discipline are qualifications for suffrage and office holding.
Aristotle
Image
The moral virtues, then, are produced in us neither by nature nor against nature. Nature, indeed, prepares in us the ground for their reception, but their complete formation is the product of habit.
Aristotle
Image
In the first place, then, men should guard against the beginning of change, and in the second place they should not rely upon the political devices of which I have already spoken invented only to deceive the people, for they are proved by experience to be useless.
Aristotle
Image
We have next to consider the formal definition of virtue.
Aristotle
Image
We maintain, and have said in the Ethics, if the arguments there adduced are of any value, that happiness is the realization and perfect exercise of virtue, and this not conditional, but absolute. And I used the term 'conditional' to express that which is indispensable, and 'absolute' to express that which is good in itself.
Aristotle
Image
We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.
Aristotle
Image
To be always seeking after the useful does not become free and exalted souls.
Aristotle
Image
The ultimate end...is not knowledge, but action. To be half right on time may be more important than to obtain the whole truth too late.
Aristotle
Image
The character which results from wealth is that of a prosperous fool.
Aristotle
Image
Before you heal the body you must first heal the mind
Aristotle
Image
Leisure of itself gives pleasure and happiness and enjoyment of life, which are experienced, not by the busy man, but by those who have leisure.
Aristotle
Image
And yet the true creator is necessity, which is the mother of invention.
Aristotle
Image
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
Image
Wit is cultured insolence.
Aristotle
Image
Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution it represents the wise choice of many alternatives - choice, not chance, determines your destiny.
Aristotle
Image
All human happiness and misery take the form of action.
Aristotle
Image
God has many names, though He is only one Being.
Aristotle
Image
Those whose days are consumed in the low pursuits of avarice, or the gaudy frivolties of fashion, unobservant of nature's lovelinessof demarcation, nor on which side thereof an intermediate form should lie.
Aristotle
