Aristotle quotes

The gods too are fond of a joke.

All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Humor is the only test of gravity, and gravity of humor; for a subject which will not bear raillery is suspicious, and a jest which will not bear serious examination is false wit.

It is unbecoming for young men to utter maxims.

Without friends no one would choose to live, though he had all other goods.

Men acquire a particular quality by constantly acting a particular way... you become just by performing just actions, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave actions.

We are what we repeatedly do.

Young people are in a condition like permanent intoxication, because youth is sweet and they are growing.

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