We present you these quotes on the birthday of one of the most outstanding thinkers in history — Benedict Spinoza. His works have significantly influenced many other great minds, including Einstein. Now you too can benefit from his wisdom!
1. When you are alone with yourself, it is important to understand who you are with.
2. As soon as you start to think that you are unable to cope with a certain task, from that moment on, its completion becomes impossible for you.
3. If you want life to smile at you, first give it your good mood.
4. Desire is the essence of human nature.
5. A skeptic who doubts everything and, therefore, refrains from any judgments, places himself on the same level as the “dumbest donkey” who dies of hunger between two bundles of hay.
6. What happens quickly also disappears quickly.
7. Excessive self-confidence or self-deprecation is a manifestation of deep ignorance of oneself.
8. Freedom is a conscious necessity.
9. A thing does not lose its truth simply because it is not recognized by many.
10. An appeal to authority is not an argument.
