Baruch Spinoza

Baruch Spinoza
Will and intellect are one and the same thing.
Baruch Spinoza

Baruch Spinoza
He who seeks equality between unequals seeks an absurdity.
Baruch Spinoza
He that can carp in the most eloquent or acute manner at the weakness of the human mind is held by his fellows as almost divine.
Baruch Spinoza
The highest endeavor of the mind, and the highest virtue, it to understand things by intuition.
Baruch Spinoza
Philosophers conceive of the passions which harass us as vices into which men fall by their own fault, and, therefore, generally deride, bewail, or blame them, or execrate them, if they wish to seem unusually pious.
Baruch Spinoza
We must take care not to admit as true anything, which is only probable. For when one falsity has been let in, infinite others follow.
Baruch Spinoza
Men believe themselves to be free, simply because they are conscious of their actions, and unconscious of the causes whereby those actions are determined.
Baruch Spinoza
Freedom is absolutely necessary for the progress in science and the liberal arts.
Baruch Spinoza
In the state of nature, wrong-doing is impossible or, if anyone does wrong, it is to himself, not to another.
Baruch Spinoza
