More quotes by Baruch Spinoza
Ambition is the immoderate desire for honor.
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
Reality and perfection are synonymous.
Baruch Spinoza
The most tyrannical of governments are those which make crimes of opinions, for everyone has an inalienable right to his thoughts.
Baruch Spinoza
Schisms do not originate in a love of truth, which is a source of courtesy and gentleness, but rather in an inordinate desire for supremacy.
Baruch Spinoza
I do not presume that I have found the best philosophy, I know that I understand the true philosophy.
Baruch Spinoza
I have made a ceaseless effort not to ridicule, not to bewail, not to scorn human actions, but to understand them.
Baruch Spinoza
A man is as much affected pleasurably or painfully by the image of a thing past or future as by the image of a thing present.
Baruch Spinoza
Things which are accidentally the causes either of hope or fear are called good or evil omens.
Baruch Spinoza
For peace is not mere absence of war, but is a virtue that springs from force of character: for obedience is the constant will to execute what, by the general decree of the commonwealth, ought to be done.
Baruch Spinoza
If we love something similar to ourselves, we endeavor, as far as we can, to bring it about that it should love us in return.
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
Nature offers nothing that can be called this man's rather than another's but under nature everything belongs to all.
Baruch Spinoza
Freedom is absolutely necessary for the progress in science and the liberal arts.
Baruch Spinoza
All things excellent are as difficult as they are rare.
Baruch Spinoza
All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.
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
Everything in nature is a cause from which there flows some effect.
Baruch Spinoza
A free man, who lives among ignorant people, tries as much as he can to refuse their benefits. .. He who lives under the guidance of reason endeavours as much as possible to repay his fellow's hatred, rage, contempt, etc. with love and nobleness.
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
