“Socrates had a student named Plato, Plato had a student named Aristotle, and Aristotle had a student named Alexander the Great.”
Tom Morris
“Herodotus, Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle all claimed that they knew nothing and so I guess I know even less.”
George Otero
“It goes back to the Greeks. Plato was an idealist, Aristotle was a materialist.”

“Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies.”
Aristotle
“Criticism, as it was first instituted by Aristotle, was meant as a standard of judging well; the chiefest part of which is to observe those excellencies which delight a reasonable reader”
John Dryden
“Aristotle was famous for knowing everything. He taught that the brain exists merely to cool the blood and is not involved in the process of thinking. This is true only of certain persons.”
Will Cuppy
“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”
