More quotes by Pythagoras
Animals share with us the privilege of having a soul.
Pythagoras
A good Soul hath neither too great joy, nor too great sorrow: for it rejoiceth in goodness and it sorroweth in wickedness. By the means whereof, when it beholdeth all things, and seeth the good and bad so mingled together, it can neither rejoice greatly nor be grieved with over much sorrow.
Pythagoras
Practice restraint over the following: appetite, first, as well as sleep, lust, and anger.
Pythagoras
If you have a wounded heart, touch it as little as you would an injured eye. There are only two remedies for the suffering of the soul: hope and patience.
Pythagoras
Envy has been, is, and shall be, the destruction of many. What is there, that Envy hath not defamed, or Malice left undefiled? Truly, no good thing.
Pythagoras
Abstain from animals.
Pythagoras
The beginning of every government starts with the education of our youth.
Pythagoras
Learn silence. With the quiet serenity of a meditative mind, listen, absorb, transcribe, and transform.
Pythagoras
It is better wither to be silent, or to say things of more value than silence. Sooner throw a pearl at hazard than an idle or useless word and do not say a little in many words, but a great deal in a few.
Pythagoras
Wisdom, thoroughly learned, will never be forgotten.
Pythagoras
A stranger, if just, is not only to be preferred before a countryman, but a kinsman.
Pythagoras
Let exercise alternate with rest.
Pythagoras
A blow from your friend is better than a kiss from your enemy.
Pythagoras
Educate the children and it won't be necessary to punish the men.
Pythagoras
Do not spend in excess like one who is careless of what is good, nor be miserly the mean is best in every case.
Pythagoras
We ought so to behave to one another as to avoid making enemies of our friends, and at the same time to make friends of our enemies.
Pythagoras
Do not go to bed until you have gone over the day three times in your mind. What wrong did I do? What good did I accomplish? What did I forget to do?
Pythagoras
Do not despise anyone: an atom shadowing.
Pythagoras
Power is the near neighbour of necessity.
Pythagoras
Let not sleep fall upon thy eyes till thou has thrice reviewed the transactions of the past day. Where have I turned aside from rectitude? What have I been doing? What have I left undone, which I ought to have done?
Pythagoras
