Thought for the Day by Aristotle

All men by nature desire knowledge
by Aristotle

The Enemy of Trust

The single quality that is common across every single living creature on this planet; is fear.

It’s funny then, that as common as fear is, we so easily underestimate its power.

Fear of growing close to someone, the subsequent fear of loss. 

Fear of failure.

And as more people depend on you, those fears can take on greater power.

But fear itself isn’t worthy of concern, it is who we become while in its clutches.

Will you be proud of that person?

Will you forgive them?

Will you understand why they felt the need to do the things they did?

Will you even recognize them?

Or will the person staring back at you be the very thing you should have feared from the start?  

I suppose we all find out, sooner or later.

Thought for the Day by Epicurus

It is not possible for a man to banish all fear of the essential questions of life unless he understands the nature of the universe and unless he banishes all consideration that the fables told about the universe could be true. Therefore a man cannot enjoy full happiness, untroubled by turmoil, unless he acts to gain knowledge of the nature of things
by  Epicurus

Thought for the Day by Plutarch

Prosperity is no just scale; adversity is the only balance to weigh friends

Thought for the Day by Plato

In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one
by Plato

Thought for the Day by Socrates

Ordinary people seem not to realize that those who really apply themselves in the right way to philosophy are directly and of their own accord preparing themselves for dying and death
