Wisdom From Aristotle ...

Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.

Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.

All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, and desire.
Those who excel in virtue have the best right of all to rebel, but then they are of all men the least inclined to do so.


Dignity consists not in possessing honors, but in the consciousness that we deserve them.

The soul never thinks without a picture.

You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.

For men are good in but one way, but bad in many.

Tragedy is thus a representation of an action that is worth serious attention, complete in itself and of some amplitude... by means of pity and fear bringing about the purgation of such emotions.

The virtue of justice consists in moderation, as regulated by wisdom.

The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.
