• Si [Plato y Aristotle] escribían sobre política era como si establecieran las reglas de un manicomio.

Les seguían la corriente para calmar su locura con el menor daño posible.

  Blaise Pascal

• Philosophy, beginning in wonder, as Plato and Aristotle said, is able to fancy everything different from what it is. It sees the familiar as if it were strange, and the strange as if it were familiar. It can take things up and lay them down again. It rouses us from our native dogmatic slumber and breaks up our caked prejudices.

• I came to Paul at quite an early age, having already studied Plato and Aristotle; and I found Paul easily their intellectual equal, though he was handling these amazing questions about God, Jesus, Israel, faith and so on. He continues to be an amazingly stimulating thinker, especially when we try to understand the flow of thought in letter after letter rather than just combing him for a few verses on 'our favourite topics', which, sadly, some Christian teachers do just as some journalists and broadcasters do!

• Others of them employ outward marks ... They style themselves Gnostics. They also possess images, some of them painted and others formed from different kinds of material. They maintain that a likeness of Christ was made by Pilate at that time when Jesus lived among them. They crown these images, and set them up along with the images of the philosophers of the world, such as Pythagoras, Plato, and Aristotle, and the rest. They have also other modes of honoring these images just like the Gentiles.

• Caminar es mágico. No puedo recomendarlo lo suficiente. Leí que Plato y Aristotle hicieron gran parte de su brillante pensamiento juntos mientras deambulaban. El movimiento, la meditación, la salud del bombeo sanguíneo y el ritmo de los pasos... es una forma primordial de conectar con nuestro yo más profundo.
