Baruch Spinoza

Baruch Spinoza

Baruch Spinoza
Nature has no goal in view, and final causes are only human imaginings.
Baruch Spinoza
God is the indwelling and not the transient cause of all things.
Baruch Spinoza
Faith is nothing but obedience and piety.
Baruch Spinoza
Reason connot defeat emotion, an emotion can only be displaced or overcome by a stronger emotion.
Baruch Spinoza
I can control my passions and emotions if I can understand their nature

All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.
Baruch Spinoza
