"They should rule who are able to..." - Quote by Aristotle

“Happiness does not consist in pastimes and amusements but in virtuous activities.”

“Self-sufficiency is both a good and an absolute good.”

“The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.”

“Democracy represents the disbelief in all great men and in all elite societies: everybody is everybody's equal.”

“When problems confront successful leaders, they get excited about the opportunity.”

“Those who have their hands dyed deep in blood cannot build a nonviolent order for the world.”

“In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude. Every man will speak as he thinks, or, more properly, without thinking, and consequently will judge of effects without attending to their causes.”

“Few relationships are as critical to the business enterprise as the relationship to the government. Managers have responsibility for this relationship as part of their responsibility to the enterprise itself. It is an area of social impact of the business. To a large extent the relationship to government results from what businesses do or fail to do.”

“When the citizens at large administer the state for the common interest, the government is called by the generic name - a constitution.”
