More quotes by Baruch Spinoza
The more intelligible a thing is, the more easily it is retained in the memory, and counterwise, the less intelligible it is, the more easily we forget it.
Baruch Spinoza
I do not presume that I have found the best philosophy, I know that I understand the true philosophy.
Baruch Spinoza
None are more taken in by flattery than the proud, who wish to be the first and are not.
Baruch Spinoza
I should attempt to treat human vice and folly geometrically... the passions of hatred, anger, envy, and so on, considered in themselves, follow from the necessity and efficacy of nature... I shall, therefore, treat the nature and strength of the emotion in exactly the same manner, as though I were concerned with lines, planes, and solids.
Baruch Spinoza
Fear cannot be without hope nor hope without fear.
Baruch Spinoza
Those who know the true use of money, and regulate the measure of wealth according to their needs, live contented with few things.
Baruch Spinoza
Happiness is a virtue, not its reward.
Baruch Spinoza
As though God had turned away from the wise, and written his decrees, not in the mind of man but in the entrails of beasts, or left them to be proclaimed by the inspiration and instinct of fools, madmen, and birds. Such is the unreason to which terror can drive mankind!
Baruch Spinoza
Desire is the very essence of man
Baruch Spinoza
If men were born free, they would, so long as they remained free, form no conception of good and evil.
Baruch Spinoza
Statesman are suspected of plotting against mankind, rather than consulting their interests, and are esteemed more crafty than learned.
Baruch Spinoza
If anyone conceives that he is loved by another, and believes that he has given no cause for such love, he will love that other in return.
Baruch Spinoza
. . . to know the order of nature, and regard the universe as orderly is the highest function of the mind.
Baruch Spinoza
Desire nothing for yourself, which you do not desire for others.
Baruch Spinoza
The more clearly you understand yourself and your emotions, the more you become a lover of what is.
Baruch Spinoza
No matter how thin you slice it, there will always be two sides.
Baruch Spinoza
Those who wish to seek out the cause of miracles and to understand the things of nature as philosophers, and not to stare at them in astonishment like fools, are soon considered heretical and impious, and proclaimed as such by those whom the mob adores as the interpreters of nature and the gods.
Baruch Spinoza
The supreme mystery of despotism, its prop and stay, is to keep men in a state of deception, and with the specious title of religion to cloak the fear by which they must be held in check, so that they will fight for their servitude as if for salvation.
Baruch Spinoza
If we conceive that anyone loves, desires, or hates anything which we ourselves love, desire, or hate, we shall thereupon regard the thing in question with more steadfast love, etc. On the contrary, if we think that anyone shrinks from something that we love, we shall undergo vacillation of the soul.
Baruch Spinoza
No to laugh, not to lament, not to detest, but to understand.
Baruch Spinoza
