Text Quotes
He that will write well in any tongue must follow this counsel of Aristotle: to speak as the common people do, to think as wise men do  (Aristotle Quotes) It is by no means certain that we advance our philosophical quest by reading Plato or Aristotle. It may increase our knowledge of history but not of the world  (Aristotle Quotes) The only good thing that we owe to Plato and Aristotle is that they brought forward many arguments which we can use against the heretics. Yet they and other philosophers are now in hell  (Aristotle Quotes) 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  (Aristotle Quotes) Of course, women have long exercised influence behind the scenes. A few thousand years ago this drove Aristotle to distraction: ‘What difference does it make whether women rule or the rulers are ruled by women? The result is the same.’  (Aristotle Quotes) For the Chinese, the Greeks, the Mayans, or the Egyptians, nature was a living totality, a creative being. For this reason, art, according to Aristotle, is imitation; the poet imitates the creative gesture of nature.  (Aristotle Quotes) During the 1950s, Aristotle Onassis and I formed what grew to be a close friendship and association in several business ventures.  (Aristotle Quotes) He that will write well in any tongue, must follow this counsel of Aristotle, to speak as the common people do, to think as wise men do: and so should every man understand him, and the judgment of wise men allow him.  (Aristotle Quotes) I will admit, like Socrates and Aristotle and Plato and some other philosophers, that there are instances where the death penalty would seem appropriate.  (Aristotle Quotes) For all my friends in the media who like quotes, mark this quote down. From this day on I’d like to be known as ‘The Big Aristotle’ because Aristotle once said, ‘Excellence is not a singular act; it’s a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.’  (Aristotle Quotes) What happened in the Western world was that Plato ceased to be the way people thought. Aristotle was rediscovered, and the modern, educated world moved toward Aristotelian thinking.  (Aristotle Quotes) Aristotle wore many rings and expensive clothes. ... Plato found this off-putting and unsuited for a philosopher.  (Aristotle Quotes) Aristotle once said that wisdom (the ability to make good decisions) is a combination of experience plus reflection. The more time that you take to think about your experiences, the more vital lessons you will gain from them.  (Aristotle Quotes) Aristotle was by far a less able thinker than Plato ... he was completely overwhelmed by Plato.  (Aristotle Quotes) The sense of tragedy - according to Aristotle - comes, ironically enough, not from the protagonist’s weak points but from his good qualities. Do you know what I’m getting at? People are drawn deeper into tragedy not by their defects but by their virtues....[But] we accept irony through a device called metaphor. And through that we grow and become deeper human beings.  (Aristotle Quotes) The last part, the part you’re now approaching, was for Aristotle the most important for happiness.  (Aristotle Quotes)
