"The habits we form from childhood make..." - Quote by Aristotle

“Since the branch of philosophy on which we are at present engaged differs from the others in not being a subject of merely intellectual interest — I mean we are not concerned to know what goodness essentially is, but how we are to become good men, for this alone gives the study its practical value — we must apply our minds to the solution of the problems of conduct.”

“A man's happiness consists in the free exercise of his highest faculties.”

“The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class is in control, and outnumbers both of the other classes.”

“At the age of 40, having ordered meat very rare in restaurants all his life, he realized he actually liked it medium and not at all rare.”

“One of the reasons many people don't have what they want is neglect. Neglect starts out as an infection and then develops into a disease.”

“If we habitually focus on how to improve things that are already great, can you see how this spirit can transform ourselves, our organizations, families and communities?”

“Sorrow makes us all children again.”

“The simplest toy, one which even the youngest child can operate, is called a grandparent.”

“I am convinced that most people do not grow up...We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies, and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are innocent and shy as magnolias.”
