"The qualities of number appear to lead..." - Quote by Plato

“Health is a consumation of a love affair of all the organs of the body.”

“Those who intend on becoming great should love neither themselves nor their own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by themselves or others.”

“In things which we know, everyone will trust us ... and we may do as we please, and no one will like to interfere with us; and we are free, and masters of others; and these things will be really ours, for we shall turn them to our good.”

“There is an astonishing imagination, even in the science of mathematics.”

“Whoever despises the high wisdom of mathematics nourishes himself on delusion and will never still the sophistic sciences whose only product is an eternal uproar.”

“I don't believe in mathematics.”

“Tell the children the truth.”

“The sermon which I write inquisitive of truth is good a year after, but that which is written because a sermon must be writ is musty the next day.”

“None but the dead are permitted to tell the truth.”
