More quotes by Aristotle
Imagination is a sort of faint perception.
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
Even if you must have regard to wealth, in order to secure leisure, yet it is surely a bad thing that the greatest offices, such as those of kings and generals, should be bought. The law which allows this abuse makes wealth of more account than virtue, and the whole state becomes avaricious.
Aristotle
Bad people...are in conflict with themselves they desire one thing and will another, like the incontinent who choose harmful pleasures instead of what they themselves believe to be good.
Aristotle
A goal gets us motivated,while a good habit keeps us stay motivated.
Aristotle
The probable is what usually happens.
Aristotle
The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class is in control, and outnumbers both of the other classes.
Aristotle
In practical matters the end is not mere speculative knowledge of what is to be done, but rather the doing of it. It is not enough to know about Virtue, then, but we must endeavor to possess it, and to use it, or to take any other steps that may make.
Aristotle
Thus every action must be due to one or other of seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reasoning, anger, or appetite.
Aristotle
First, have a definite, clear practical ideal a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.
Aristotle
Before you heal the body you must first heal the mind
Aristotle
We ought, so far as it lies within our power, to aspire to immortality, and do all that we can to live in conformity with the highest that is within us for even if it is small in quantity, in power and preciousness, it far excels all the rest.
Aristotle
All men by nature desire knowledge.
Aristotle
When we deliberate it is about means and not ends.
Aristotle
But it is not at all certain that this superiority of the many over the sound few is possible in the case of every people and every large number. There are some whom it would be impossible: otherwise the theory would apply to wild animals- and yet some men are hardly any better than wild animals.
Aristotle
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
Aristotle
Man by Nature desires to know.
Aristotle
Opinion involves belief (for without belief in what we opine we cannot have an opinion), and in the brutes though we often find imagination we never find belief.
Aristotle
What is the highest good in all matters of action? To the name, there is almost complete agreement for uneducated and educated alike call it happiness, and make happiness identical with the good life and successful living. They disagree, however, about the meaning of happiness.
Aristotle
Youth loves honor and victory more than money.
Aristotle
