"The least initial deviation from the truth..." - Quote by Aristotle

“The coward calls the brave man rash, the rash man calls him a coward.”

“Nature herself, as has been often said, requires that we should be able, not only to work well, but to use leisure well; for, as I must repeat once again, the first principle of all action is leisure. Both are required, but leisure is better than occupation and is its end.”

“The proof that you know something is that you are able to teach it”

“I am very fond of truth, but not at all of martyrdom.”

“I think if the people of this country can be reached with the truth, their judgment will be in favor of the many, as against the privileged few”

“We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?”

“Present wars impoverish the lords that win as much as those that lose.”

“War...is as much a punishment to the punisher as to the sufferer.”

“It is the flash which appears, the thunderbolt will follow.”
