Aristotle
Nature makes nothing incomplete, and nothing in vain.
Aristotle

Aristotle

Aristotle

Aristotle
No one praises happiness as one praises justice, but we call it a 'blessing,' deeming it something higher and more divine than things we praise.
Aristotle
. . . the man is free, we say, who exists for his own sake and not for another's.
Aristotle
A fool contributes nothing worth hearing and takes offense at everything.
Aristotle
Wit is educated insolence.
Aristotle
Suppose, then, that all men were sick or deranged, save one or two of them who were healthy and of right mind. It would then be the latter two who would be thought to be sick and deranged and the former not!
Aristotle
To the size of the state there is a limit, as there is to plants, animals and implements, for none of these retain their facility when they are too large.
Aristotle
One has no friend who has many friends.
Aristotle
