More quotes by Baruch Spinoza

Baruch Spinoza
No to laugh, not to lament, not to detest, but to understand.
Baruch Spinoza
I can control my passions and emotions if I can understand their nature
Baruch Spinoza
A miracle signifies nothing more than an event... the cause of which cannot be explained by another familiar instance, or.... which the narrator is unable to explain.
Baruch Spinoza
. . . to know the order of nature, and regard the universe as orderly is the highest function of the mind.
Baruch Spinoza
The proper study of a wise man is not how to die but how to live.
Baruch Spinoza
The eternal wisdom of God ... has shown itself forth in all things, but chiefly in the mind of man, and most of all in Jesus Christ.
Baruch Spinoza
The more a government strives to curtail freedom of speech, the more obstinately is it resisted not indeed by the avaricious, ... but by those whom good education, sound morality, and virtue have rendered more free.
Baruch Spinoza
The less the mind understands and the more things it perceives, the greater its power of feigning is and the more things it understands, the more that power is diminished.
Baruch Spinoza
True piety for the universe but no time for religions made for man's convenience.
Baruch Spinoza
He who seeks equality between unequals seeks an absurdity.
Baruch Spinoza
Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.
Baruch Spinoza
Reality and perfection are synonymous.
Baruch Spinoza
There is no fear without some hope, and no hope without some fear.
Baruch Spinoza
Let unswerving integrity be your watchword.
Baruch Spinoza
[Believers] are but triflers who, when they cannot explain a thing, run back to the will of God this is, truly, a ridiculous way of expressing ignorance.
Baruch Spinoza
To comprehend an idea, a person must simultaneously accept it as true. Conscious analysis - which, depending on the idea, may occur almost immediately or with considerable effort - allows the mind to reject what it intially accepted as fact.
Baruch Spinoza
Faith is nothing but obedience and piety.
Baruch Spinoza
I do not presume that I have found the best philosophy, I know that I understand the true philosophy.
Baruch Spinoza
No one doubts but that we imagine time from the very fact that we imagine other bodies to be moved slower or faster or equally fast. We are accustomed to determine duration by the aid of some measure of motion.
Baruch Spinoza
