"It is clear that there is some..." - Quote by Aristotle

“Without virtue it is difficult to bear gracefully the honors of fortune.”

“By 'life,' we mean a thing that can nourish itself and grow and decay.”

“Teaching is the highest form of understanding.”

“Such a man, truly wise, creams off Nature leaving the sour and the dregs for philosophy and reason to lap up.”

“It would be very singular that all nature, all the planets, should obey eternal laws, and that there should be a little animal five feet high, who, in contempt of these laws, could act as he pleased, solely according to his caprice.”

“There is no Final Resting Place of the Mind.”

“You become most powerful in whatever you do if the action is performed for its own sake rather than as a means to protect, enhance, or conform to your role identity.”

“Happiness, then, is found to be something perfect and self-sufficient, being the end to which our actions are directed.”

“Using an artful tool does not make one a dry technician. It seems to me that people that are anxious about our technical advancement, confuse means and ends. Naturally a person that only works for material gain will not harvest something that is worth living for. But the machine is not an end in itself. The airplane is not an end. It is a tool. Just like the plough.”
