I have been reading a book about Ancient Greek Classical Culture.
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it. "
"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."
"It is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen."
"A state is not a mere society, having a common place, established for the prevention of mutual crime and for the sake of exchange...Political society exists for the sake of noble actions, and not of mere companionship."
-Aristotle.
