More quotes by Aristotle
The most important relationship we can all have is the one you have with yourself, the most important journey you can take is one of self-discovery. To know yourself, you must spend time with yourself, you must not be afraid to be alone. Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.
Aristotle
Friendship also seems to be the bond that hold communities together.
Aristotle
We work to earn our leisure.
Aristotle
Man first begins to philosophize when the necessities of life are supplied.
Aristotle
For it is owing to their wonder that men both now begin and at first began to philosophize... They were pursuing science in order to know, and not for any utilitarian end.
Aristotle
But if nothing but soul, or in soul mind, is qualified to count, it is impossible for there to be time unless there is soul, but only that of which time is an attribute, i.e. if change can exist without soul.
Aristotle
[Prudence] is the virtue of that part of the intellect [the calculative] to which it belongs and . . . our choice of actions will not be right without Prudence any more than without Moral Virtue, since, while Moral Virtue enables us to achieve the end, Prudence makes us adopt the right means to the end.
Aristotle
If things do not turn out as we wish, we should wish for them as they turn out.
Aristotle
Why do men seek honour? Surely in order to confirm the favorable opinion they have formed of themselves.
Aristotle
It is not easy for a person to do any great harm when his tenure of office is short, whereas long possession begets tyranny.
Aristotle
Nature herself, as has been often said, requires that we should be able, not only to work well, but to use leisure well for, as I must repeat once again, the first principle of all action is leisure. Both are required, but leisure is better than occupation and is its end.
Aristotle
Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting in a particular way.
Aristotle
No excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness.
Aristotle
He who sees things grow from the beginning will have the best view of them.
Aristotle
Whosoever is delighted in solitude is either a wild beast or a god.
Aristotle
If everything when it occupies an equal space is at rest, and if that which is in locomotion is always occupying such a space at any moment, the flying arrow is therefore motionless.
Aristotle
We may assume the superiority ceteris paribus of the demonstration which derives from fewer postulates or hypotheses - in short, from fewer premises.
Aristotle
I will not allow the Athenians to sin twice against philosophy.
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
We are what we do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.
Aristotle
