Author of quotes: Antisthenes. Page 1

Virtue is manifested in actions and not in need or in abundance of words nor in the abundance of knowledge.

Virtue is a weapon that nobody can take away.

The state is killed when no longer distinguish the bad from the good.

The fraternal closeness of likeminded stronger than any walls.

Only it is more blessed for a man to die happy.

The most useful piece of learning for the uses of life is to unlearn what is untrue.
The most necessary science - the science to forget the unnecessary.

Sage marries to have children, though from the most beautiful women; he will not be avoided and love Affairs - for only the wise man knows who to love.

Restraint is more necessary for those who hear bad about themselves than those who throw stones.

Better to fight among the few good people against the bad than the vast array of evil against the few good.

Better accrue to the vultures than to get to the flatterers. Those devour the dead, and those alive.

Need to stock up on or a mind to understand, or a rope to hang himself.

Do not neglect the enemies: they are the first to notice your mistakes.
