More quotes by Aristotle
All proofs rest on premises.
Aristotle
Friendship is communion.
Aristotle
A friend is a second self, so that our consciousness of a friend's existence...makes us more fully conscious of our own existence.
Aristotle
The brave man, if he be compared with the coward, seems foolhardy and, if with the foolhardy man, seems a coward.
Aristotle
A sense is what has the power of receiving into itself the sensible forms of things without the matter, in the way in which a piece of wax takes on the impress of a signet-ring without the iron or gold.
Aristotle
The real difference between democracy and oligarchy is poverty and wealth. Wherever men rule by reason of their wealth, whether they be few or many, that is an oligarchy, and where the poor rule, that is a democracy.
Aristotle
Happiness is prosperity combined with virtue.
Aristotle
One cannot say of something that it is and that it is not in the same respect at the same time.
Aristotle
... the good for man is an activity of the soul in accordance with virtue, or if there are more kinds of virtue than one, in accordance with the best and most perfect kind.
Aristotle
A man becomes a friend whenever being loved he loves in return.
Aristotle
Happiness is self-connectedness.
Aristotle
A very populous city can rarely, if ever, be well governed.
Aristotle
It is absurd to hold that a man ought to be ashamed of being unable to defend himself with his limbs, but not of being unable to defend himself with speech and reason, when the use of rational speech is more distinctive of a human being than the use of his limbs.
Aristotle
All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsions, habit, reason, passion, desire.
Aristotle
Nothing in life is more necessary than friendship.
Aristotle
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
In revolutions the occasions may be trifling but great interest are at stake.
Aristotle
Time is the measurable unit of movement concerning a before and an after.
Aristotle
Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.
Aristotle
Of old, the demagogue was also a general, and then democracies changed into tyrannies. Most of the ancient tyrants were originally demagogues. They are not so now, but they were then and the reason is that they were generals and not orators, for oratory had not yet come into fashion.
Aristotle
