More quotes by Pythagoras
Remind yourself that all men assert that wisdom is the greatest good, but that there are few who strenuously seek out that greatest good.
Pythagoras
If men with fleshly mortals must be fed, and chew with bleeding teeth the breathing bread what else is this but to devour our guests, and barbarously renew Cyclopean feasts? While Earth not only can your needs supply, but, lavish of her store, provides for luxury a guiltless feast administers with ease, and without blood is prodigal to please.
Pythagoras
Number is the within of all things.
Pythagoras
Hate and fear breed a poison in the blood, which if continued, affects eyes, ears, nose and the organs of digestion. Therefore, it is not wise to hear and remember the unkind things others might say about you.
Pythagoras

Pythagoras
Truth is to be sought with a mind purified from the passions of the body. Having overcome evil things, thou shalt experience the union of the union mortal divinity with the mortal man.
Pythagoras
