Top 5 quotes from Aristotle
"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."
"A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side."
"Anybody can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not within everybody's power and is not easy."
"No great genius has ever existed without some touch of madness."
Top 5 quotes from Miscellaneous

"As for a future life, every man must judge for himself between conflicting vague probabilities."
"Just think of the tragedy of teaching children not to doubt."
"There is something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty."
"The destiny of man is not measured by material computation. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we are spirits--not animals."
