"All Earthquakes and Disasters are warnings; there’s..." - Quote by Aristotle

“A young man is not a proper hearer of lectures on political science; for he is inexperienced in the actions that occur in life, but its discussions start from these and are about these; and, further, since he tends to follow his passions, his study will be vain and unprofitable, because the end that is aimed at is not knowledge but action. And it makes no difference whether he is young in years or youthful in character.”

“Yes the truth is that men's ambition and their desire to make money are among the most frequent causes of deliberate acts of injustice.”

“The society that loses its grip on the past is in danger, for it produces men who know nothing but the present, and who are not aware that life had been, and could be, different from what it is.”

“The great thieves lead away the little thief.”

“The corruption of man is followed by the corruption of language.”

“The enjoyment of power inevitably corrupts the judgment of reason, and perverts its liberty.”

“Shall we go on conferring our Civilization upon the peoples that sit in darkness, or shall we give those poor things a rest?”

“All progress depends upon the unreasonable person.”

“If the aristocrat is only valid in fashionable circles, and not with truckmen, he will never be a leader in fashion; and if the man of the people cannot speak on equal terms with the gentleman, so that the gentleman shall perceive that he is already really of his own order, he is not to be feared.”
