More quotes by Aristotle
The least initial deviation from the truth is multiplied later a thousandfold.
Aristotle
It is no part of a physician's business to use either persuasion or compulsion upon the patients.
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
for we are inquiring not in order to know what virtue is, but in order to become good, since otherwise our inquiry would have been of no use
Aristotle
We make war that we may live in peace.
Aristotle
Therefore, the good of man must be the end of the science of politics.
Aristotle
Of all the varieties of virtues, liberalism is the most beloved.
Aristotle
Happiness, whether consisting in pleasure or virtue, or both, is more often found with those who are highly cultivated in their minds and in their character, and have only a moderate share of external goods, than among those who possess external goods to a useless extent but are deficient in higher qualities.
Aristotle
The best way to teach morality is to make it a habit with children.
Aristotle
Friendship is essentially a partnership.
Aristotle
Men pay most attention to what is their own: they care less for what is common or, at any rate, they care for it only to the extent to which each is individually concerned.
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
The structural unity of the parts is such that, if any one of them is displaced or removed, the whole will be disjointed and disĀturbed. For a thing whose presence or absence makes no visible difference is not an organic part of the whole.
Aristotle
Some vices miss what is right because they are deficient, others because they are excessive, in feelings or in actions, while virtue finds and chooses the mean.
Aristotle
1 is not prime, by definition. 2 is an unnatural prime, 4 is an unnatural prime, and 6 is an unnatural prime. All other natural primes cannot be unnatural primes.
Aristotle
Each human being is bred with a unique set of potentials that yearn to be fulfilled as surely as the acorn yearns to become the oak within it.
Aristotle
That which is excellent endures.
Aristotle
If the art of ship-building were in the wood, ships would exist by nature.
Aristotle
The intelligence consists not only in the knowledge but also in the skill to apply the knowledge into practice.
Aristotle
One thing alone not even God can do,To make undone whatever hath been done.
Aristotle
