"What is the essence of life? To..." - Quote by Aristotle

“A constitution is the arrangement of magistracies in a state.”

“He who is by nature not his own but another's man is by nature a slave.”

“Marriage is like retiring as a bachelor and getting a sexual pension. You don't have to work for the sex any more, but you only get 65% as much.”

“It's a heavy duty to try to do everything and please everybody. My job was to go out there and play the game of basketball as best I can and provide entertainment for everyone who wanted to watch basketball. Obviously, people may not agree with that; again, I can't live with what everyone's impression of what I should or what I shouldn't do.”

“I enjoy almost everything. Yet I have some restless searcher in me. Why is there not a discovery in life? Something one can lay hands on and say “This is it”? My depression is a harassed feeling. I’m looking: but that’s not it — that’s not it. What is it? And shall I die before I find it?”

“You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers.”

“Down in their hearts, wise men know this truth: the only way to help yourself is to help others.”

“Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life's deepest joy: true fulfillment.”

“The good we do to others is spoilt unless we efface ourselves so completely that those we help have no sense of inferiority.”
