Happiness is activity of soul. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
To be conscious that we are perceiving or thinking is to be conscious of our own existence. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Moral virtue is the quality of acting in the best way in relation to pleasures and pains, and that vice is the opposite. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
{On to contributions to evolutionary biology of 18th century French scientist, Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon}

He was not an evolutionary biologist, yet he was the father of evolutionism. He was the first person to discuss a large number of evolutionary problems, problems that before Buffon had not been raised by anybody.... he brought them to the attention of the scientific world.

Except for Aristotle and Darwin, no other student of organisms [whole animals and plants] has had as far-reaching an influence.

He brought the idea of evolution into the realm of science. He developed a concept of the "unity of type", a precursor of comparative anatomy. More than anyone else, he was responsible for the acceptance of a long-time scale for the history of the earth. He was one of the first to imply that you get inheritance from your parents, in a description based on similarities between elephants and mammoths. And yet, he hindered evolution by his frequent endorsement of the immutability of species. He provided a criterion of species, fertility among members of a species, that was thought impregnable. ~ Ernst W. Mayr
Aristotle quotes by Ernst W. Mayr
There is a paradox in fiction that was first noticed by Aristotle in the Poetics. We are drawn to fiction because fiction gives us pleasure. But most of what is actually in fiction is deeply unpleasant: threat, death, despair, anxiety, Sturm und Drang. ~ Jonathan Gottschall
Aristotle quotes by Jonathan Gottschall
The arousing of prejudice, pity, anger, and similar emotions has nothing to do with the essential facts, but is merely a personal appeal to the man who is judging the case. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Verbally there is very general agreement; for both the general run of men and people of superior refinement say that it is happiness, and identify living well and doing well with being happy; but with regard to what happiness is they differ, and the many do not give the same account as the wise. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
It is not brains or intelligence that is needed to cope with the problems with Plato and Aristotle and all of their successors to the present have failed to confront. What is needed is a readiness to undervalue the world altogether. This is only possible for a Christian ... All technologies and all cultures, ancient and modern, are part of our immediate expanse. There is hope in this diversity since it creates vast new possibilities of detachment and amusement at human gullibility and self-deception. There is no harm in reminding ourselves from time to time that the "Prince of this World" is a great P.R. man, a great salesman of new hardware and software, a great electric engineer, and a great master of the media. It is his master stroke to be not only environmental but invisible for the environmental is invincibly persuasive when ignored. ~ Marshall McLuhan
Aristotle quotes by Marshall McLuhan
Democracy functions insofar as individuals can participate meaningfully in the public arena, meanwhile running their own affairs, individually and collectively, without illegitimate interference by concentrations of power. Functioning democracy presupposes relative equality in access to resources - material, informational, and other - a truism as old as Aristotle. In theory, governments are instituted to serve their "domestic constituencies" and are to be subject to their will. A measure of functioning democracy, then, is the extent to which the theory approximates reality, and the "domestic constituencies" genuinely approximate the population. ~ Noam Chomsky
Aristotle quotes by Noam Chomsky
I will admit, like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers, that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate. ~ Jack Kevorkian
Aristotle quotes by Jack Kevorkian
One should not study what is best, but also what is possible, and similarly what is easier and more attainable by all. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
And if a man believes nothing, but believes it equally so and not so, how would his state be different from a vegetable's? ~ Aristotle
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle
The law does not expressly permit suicide, and what it does not permit it forbids. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Happiness is the exercise of talent, along the lines of excellence. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
To write well, express yourself like the common people, but think like a wise man. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
All who have meditated on the art of governing mankind have been convinced that the fate of empires depends on the education of youth. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Think as wise men do, but speak as the common people do. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Some kinds of animals burrow in the ground; others do not. Some animals are nocturnal, as the owl and the bat; others use the hours of daylight. There are tame animals and wild animals. Man and the mule are always tame; the leopard and the wolf are invariably wild, and others, as the elephant, are easily tamed. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Nature operates in the shortest way possible. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Whether we will philosophize or we won't philosophize, we must philosophize. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The faith engaged with Platonism in the ancient world, with Aristotle in the medieval world, with nominalism in the Reformation era, and with rationalism in the modern world. Now the church must engage with the emergence of a postmodern, post- Christian, neo-pagan world. ~ Robert E. Webber
Aristotle quotes by Robert E. Webber
And were the vision of Democritus to have been adopted by Western civilization, instead of being cast aside for the pale views of Plato and Aristotle, we would be vastly further ahead today, in ~ Carl Sagan
Aristotle quotes by Carl Sagan
The intelligence consists not only in the knowledge but also in the skill to apply the knowledge into practice. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Between husband and wife friendship seems to exist by nature, for man is naturally disposed to pairing. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Youth should stay away from all evil, especially things that produce wickedness and ill-will. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Excellence or virtue is a settled disposition of the mind that determines our choice of actions and emotions and consists essentially in observing the mean relative to us ... a mean between two vices, that which depends on excess and that which depends on defect. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Prosperity makes friends and adversity tries them. A true friend is one soul in two bodies ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
But no moral philosopher, from Aristotle to Aquinas, to John Locke and Adam Smith, divorced economics from a set of moral ends or held the production of wealth to be an end in itself; rather it was seen as a means to the realization of virtue, a means of leading a civilized life. ~ Daniel Bell
Aristotle quotes by Daniel Bell
O Aristotle! if you had had the advantage of being "the freshest modern" instead of the greatest ancient, would you not have mingled your praise of metaphorical speech, as a sign of high intelligence, with a lamentation that intelligence so rarely shows itself in speech without metaphor,–that we can so seldom declare what a thing is, except by saying it is something else? ~ George Eliot
Aristotle quotes by George Eliot
The highest type of intelligence, says Aristotle, manifests itself in an ability to see connections where no one has seen them before, that is, to think analogically. ~ J.M. Coetzee
Aristotle quotes by J.M. Coetzee
Good moral character is not something that we can achieve on our own. We need a culture that supports the conditions under which self-love and friendship flourish. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Both Self-restraint and Unrestraint are a matter of extremes as compared with the character of the mass of mankind; the restrained man shows more and the unrestrained man less steadfastness than most men are capable of. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The proud man, then, is an extreme in respect of the greatness of his claims, but a mean in respect of the rightness of them; for he claims what is accordance with his merits, while the others go to excess or fall short. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The family is the association established by nature for the supply of man's everyday wants. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
There seems to be in us a sort of affinity to musical modes and rhythms, which makes some philosophers say that the soul is a tuning, others, that it possesses tuning. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The life of active virtue is essentially pleasant. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Hence 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 aimed at is not knowledge but action. And it makes no difference whether he is young in years or youthful in character; the defect does not depend on time, but on his living, and pursuing each successive object, as passion directs. For to such persons, as to the incontinent, knowledge brings no profit; but to those who desire and act in accordance with a rational principle knowledge about such matters will be of great benefit. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Nor was civil society founded merely to preserve the lives of its members; but that they might live well: for otherwise a state might be composed of slaves, or the animal creation ... nor is it an alliance mutually to defend each other from injuries, or for a commercial intercourse. But whosoever endeavors to establish wholesome laws in a state, attends to the virtues and vices of each individual who composes it; from whence it is evident, that the first care of him who would found a city, truly deserving that name, and not nominally so, must be to have his citizens virtuous. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
We have then, in the first part of The Faerie Queene, four of the seven deadly sins depicted in the more important passages of the four several books; those sins being much more elaborately and powerfully represented than the virtues, which are opposed to them, and which are personified in the titular heroes of the respective books. The alteration which made these personified virtues the centre each of a book was probably part of the reconstruction on the basis of Aristotle Ethics.
The nature of the debt to Aristotle suggests that Spenser did not borrow directly from the Greek, but by way of modern translations. ~ Janet Spens
Aristotle quotes by Janet Spens
A state is an association of similar persons whose aim is the best life possible. What is best is happiness, and to be happy is an active exercise of virtue and a complete employment of it. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
And by this very difference tragedy stands apart in relation to comedy, for the latter intends to imitate those who are worse, and the former better, than people are now. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
It would then be most admirably adapted to the purposes of justice, if laws properly enacted were, as far as circumstances admitted, of themselves to mark out all cases, and to abandon as few as possible to the discretion of the judge. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Wisdom or intelligence and prudence are intellectual, liberality and temperance are moral virtues. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
If the consequences are the same it is always better to assume the more limited antecedent, since in things of nature the limited, as being better, is sure to be found, wherever possible, rather than the unlimited. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
If you read philosophical texts of the tradition, you'll notice they almost never said 'I,' and didn't speak in the first person. From Aristotle to Heidegger, they try to consider their own lives as something marginal or accidental. What was essential was their teaching and their thinking. Biography is something empirical and outside, and is considered an accident that isn't necessarily or essentially linked to the philosophical activity or system. ~ Jacques Derrida
Aristotle quotes by Jacques Derrida
Excellence or virtue in a man will be the disposition which renders him a good man and also which will cause him to perform his function well. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Each man judges correctly those matters with which he is acquainted; it is of these that he is a competent critic. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The pleasures arising from thinking and learning will make us think and learn all the more. 1153a 23 ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Life in the true sense is perceiving or thinking. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
These are the three things - volume of sound, modulation of pitch, and rhythm - that a speaker bears in mind. It is those who do bear them in mind who usually win prizes in the dramatic contests; and just as in drama the actors now count for more than the poets, so it is in the contests of public life, owing to the defects of our political institutions. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Neither should we forget the mean, which at the present day is lost sight of in perverted forms of government; for many practices which appear to be democratical are the ruin of democracies, and many which appear to be oligarchical are the ruin of oligarchies. Those who think that all virtue is to be found in their own party principles push matters to extremes; they do not consider that disproportion destroys a state. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Purpose is a desire for something in our own power, coupled with an investigation into its means. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
During the 1950s, Aristotle Onassis and I formed what grew to be a close friendship and association in several business ventures. ~ J. Paul Getty
Aristotle quotes by J. Paul Getty
However, it is not the same with the subject matter, but, generally speaking, that which is true and better is naturally always easier to prove and more likely to persuade. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Women should marry when they are about eighteen years of age, and men at seven and thirty; then they are in the prime of life, and the decline in the powers of both will coincide. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
For one swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
We are all inclined to ... direct our inquiry not by the matter itself, but by the views of our opponents; and, even when interrogating oneself, one pushes the inquiry only to the point at which one can no longer offer any opposition. Hence a good inquirer will be one who is ready in bringing forward the objections proper to the genus, and that he will be when he has gained an understanding of the differences. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Such [communistic] legislation may have a specious appearance of benevolence; men readily listen to it, and are easily induced to believe that in some wonderful manner everybody will become everybody's friend, especially when some one is heard denouncing the evils now existing in states, suits about contracts, convictions for perjury, flatteries of rich men and the like, which are said to arise out of the possession of private property. These evils, however, are due to a very different cause - the wickedness of human nature. Indeed, we see that there is much more quarrelling among those who have all things in common, though there are not many of them when compared with the vast numbers who have private property. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
A man may possess the disposition without its producing any good result. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The fact is that all the important political philosophers and scientists from the great Aristotle on, with the exception of those of the French Enlightenment and Mill, have sided with the powers that be. ~ Mario Bunge
Aristotle quotes by Mario Bunge
There is only one condition in which we can imagine managers not needing subordinates, and masters not needing slaves. This condition would be that each (inanimate) instrument could do its own work. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
I shall sit down,' replied the cat, sitting down, 'but I shall enter an objection with regard to your last. My speeches in no way resemble verbal muck, as you have been pleased to put it in the presence of a lady, but rather a sequence of tightly packed syllogisms, the merit of which would be appreciated by such connoisseurs as Sextus Empiricus, Martianus Capella, and, for all I know, Aristotle himself.'
Your king is in check,' said Woland.
Very well, very well,' responded the cat, and he began studying the chessboard through his opera glasses.
And so, donna,' Woland addressed Margarita, 'I present to you my retinue. This one who is playing the fool is the cat Behemoth ... ~ Mikhail Bulgakov
Aristotle quotes by Mikhail Bulgakov
I do realise that talk of natural kinds dates back to Aristotle, but I'd better not say too much about ancient philosophers lest I be convicted of practicing history of philosophy without a license. ~ Hilary Kornblith
Aristotle quotes by Hilary Kornblith
The tyrant, who in order to hold his power, suppresses every superiority, does away with good men, forbids education and light, controls every movement of the citizens and, keeping them under a perpetual servitude, wants them to grow accustomed to baseness and cowardice, has his spies everywhere to listen to what is said in the meetings, and spreads dissension and calumny among the citizens and impoverishes them, is obliged to make war in order to keep his subjects occupied and impose on them permanent need of a chief. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The female is, as it were, a mutilated male, and the catamenia are semen, only not pure; for there is only one thing they have not in them, the principle of soul. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Remember that time slurs over everything, let all deeds fade, blurs all writings and kills all memories. Exempt are only those which dig into the hearts of men by love. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Thou wilt find rest from vain fancies if thou doest every act in life as though it were thy last. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Money was established for exchange, but interest causes it to be reproduced by itself. Therefore this way of earning money is greatly in conflict with the natural law. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
All food must be capable of being digested, and that what produces digestion is warmth; that is why everything that has soul in it possesses warmth. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The knowledge of the soul admittedly contributes greatly to the advance of truth in general, and, above all, to our understanding of Nature, for the soul is in some sense the principle of animal life. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Being cannot be one in form, though it may be in what it is made of. (Even some of the physicists hold it to be one in the latter way, though not in the former.) Man obviously differs from horse in form, and contraries from each other. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
. . . the only legitimate reason that kingship is not attractive to us is because in this age and this world the only kings available are finite and sinful. Listen to C. S. Lewis describe why he believes in democracy:

A great deal of democratic enthusiasm descends from the ideas of people like Rousseau, who believed in democracy because they thought mankind so wise and good that everyone deserved a share in the government. The danger of defending democracy on those grounds is that they're not true. . . I find that they're not true without looking further than myself. I don't deserve a share in governing a hen-roost, much less a nation. . . . The real reason for democracy is . . . Mankind is so fallen that no man can be trusted with unchecked power over his fellows. Aristotle said that some people were only fit to be slaves. I do not contradict him. But I reject slavery because I see no men fit to be masters.1

If there could be a king who is not limited in his wisdom and power and goodness and love for his subjects, then monarchy would be the best of all governments. If such a ruler could ever rise in the world - with no weakness, no folly, no sin - then no wise and humble person would ever want democracy again.

The question is not whether God broke into the universe as a king. He did. The question is: What kind of king is he? What difference would his kingship make for you? ~ John Piper
Aristotle quotes by John Piper
It is interesting that for Plato, and for most Platonists, an altruistic individualism cannot exist. According to Plato, the only alternative to collectivism is egoism; he simply identifies all altruism with collectivism, and all individualism with egoism. This is not a matter of terminology, of mere words, for instead of four possibilities, Plato recognized only two. This has created considerable confusion in speculation on ehtical matters, even down to our own day.

Plato's identification of individualism with egoism furnishes him with a powerful weapon for his defence of collectivism as well as for his attack upon individualism. In defending collectivism, he can appeal to our humanitarian feeling of unselfishness; in his attack, he can brand all individualists as selfish, as incapable of devotion to anything but themselves. This attack, although aimed by Plato against individualism in our sense, i.e. against the rights of human individuals, reaches of course only a very different target, egoism. But this difference is constantly ignored by Plato and by most Platonists...

Individualism was part of the old intuitive idea of justice. That justice is not, as Plato would have it, the health and harmony of the state, but rather a certain way of treating individuals, is emphasized by Aristotle, when he says, 'justice is something that pertains to persons. ~ Karl Popper
Aristotle quotes by Karl Popper
Aristotle writes that persuasion is based on three things: the ethos, or personal character of the speaker; the pathos, or getting the audience into the right kind of emotional receptivity; and the logos, or the argument itself, carried out by abbreviated syllogisms, or something like deductive syllogisms, and by the use of example. ~ Randal Marlin
Aristotle quotes by Randal Marlin
[Aristotle formal logic thus far (1787)] has not been able to advance a single step, and hence is to all appearances closed and completed. ~ Immanuel Kant
Aristotle quotes by Immanuel Kant
When you have thrown a stone, you cannot afterwards bring it back again, but nevertheless you are responsible for having taken up the stone and flung it, for the origin of the act was within you. Similarly the unjust and profligate might at the outset have avoided becoming so, and therefore they are so voluntarily, although when they have become unjust and profligate it is no longer open to them not to be so. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
One citizen differs from another, but the salvation of the community is the common business of them all. This community is the constitution; the virtue of the citizen must therefore be relative to the constitution of which he is a member. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The virtue of justice consists in moderation, as regulated by wisdom. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
For Aristotle, habits reigned supreme. The behaviors that occur unthinkingly are the evidence of our truest selves. ~ Charles Duhigg
Aristotle quotes by Charles Duhigg
This male-default bias goes back at least to the ancient Greeks, who kicked off the trend of seeing the female body as a 'mutilated male' body (thanks, Aristotle). The female was the male 'turned outside in'. Ovaries were female testicles (they were not given their own name until the seventeenth century) and the uterus was the female scrotum. The reason they were inside the body rather than dropped out (as in typical humans) is because of a female deficiency in 'vital heat'. The male body was an ideal women failed to live up to. ~ Caroline Criado Perez
Aristotle quotes by Caroline Criado Perez
Happiness involves engagement in activities that promote one's highest potentials. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
modern humanist education believes in teaching students to think for themselves. It is good to know what Aristotle, Solomon and Aquinas thought about politics, art and economics; yet since the supreme source of meaning and authority lies within ourselves, it is far more important to know what you think about these matters. ~ Yuval Noah Harari
Aristotle quotes by Yuval Noah Harari
The science of the church is neglected for the study of geometry, and they lose sight of Heaven while they are employed in measuring the earth. Euclid is perpetually in their hands. Aristotle and Theophrastus are the objects of their admiration; and they express an uncommon reverence for the works of Galen. Their errors are derived from the abuse of the arts and sciences of the infidels, and they corrupt the simplicity of the gospel by the refinements of human reason. ~ Edward Gibbon
Aristotle quotes by Edward Gibbon
Worms are the intestines of the earth. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
All men agree that a just distribution must be according to merit in some sense; they do not all specify the same sort of merit, but democrats identify it with freemen, supporters of oligarchy with wealth (or noble birth), and supporters of aristocracy with excellence. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Happiness seems to require a modicum of external prosperity. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
God has many names, though He is only one Being. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
To succeed in business it is necessary to make others see things as you see them. ~ Aristotle Onassis
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle Onassis
The friendship of worthless people has a bad effect (because they take part, unstable as they are, in worthless pursuits, and actually become bad through each other's influence). But the friendship of the good is good, and increases in goodness because of their association. They seem even to become better men by exercising their friendship and improving each other; for the traits that they admire in each other get transferred to themselves. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The young are heated by Nature as drunken men by wine. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Speeches are like babies-easy to conceive but hard to deliver. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
for the same things are not 'knowable relatively to us' and 'knowable' without qualification. So in the present inquiry we must follow this method and advance from what is more obscure by nature, (20) but clearer to us, towards what is more clear and more knowable by nature. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Refuting a merely contentious argument - a description which applies to the arguments both of Melissus and of Parmenides: their premisses are false and their conclusions do not follow. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
We have followed the general practice in referring to the nominative form as a "case" among four other cases. However, some modern grammarians have developed an account which goes back to Aristotle and according to which the term "noun" ('onoma') should be reserved for the nominative form, which names ('onomazein') simply, with no indication of a relation to other elements in the sentence. From its base (or "upright" or "straight" -- 'orthe', 'eutheia') form and function, a noun may undergo a "fall" ('ptosis', Latin 'casus', whence English 'case') or "inclination" ('klisis', from 'klino') towards other elements within the sentence. The roster of such fallings off is called a 'declension'. Although it is convenient to include the nominative form among the "cases," we shall occasionally refer to the other four as the 'oblique' cases. ~ Alfred Mollin
Aristotle quotes by Alfred Mollin
The devotee of myth is in a way a philosopher, for myth is made up of things that cause wonder.

(Metaphysics, I, 982b 18–19) ~ Aristotle
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle
The true nature of a thing is the highest it can become. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Character is determined by choice, not opinion. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
Nothing has been as instructive in exploring the notion of authenticity as relearning the work of the great philosophers Aristotle and Plato. We are struck by their applicability to our work as we help companies and people develop their brands. Why do these early philosophers have so much to say that is helpful to modern marketers? We believe it is because they were focused on the fundamental issues of authenticity that we all face: Who are we? Why are we? How should we behave? Asking these questions encourages us to deepen our self-awareness. In particular, this issue of "who are we?" is critical. Knowing who we are is the key to elevating our capacities and performance. ~ Tom Hayes
Aristotle quotes by Tom Hayes
A bad man can do a million times more harm than a beast. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
The avarice of mankind is insatiable. ~ Aristotle.
Aristotle quotes by Aristotle.
