Men will find that they can ... avoid far more easily the perils which beset them on all sides by united action.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

Further conceive, I beg, that ...

Further conceive, I beg, that a stone, while continuing in motion, should be capable of thinking and knowing, that it is endeavoring, as far as it can, to continue to move. Such a stone, being conscious merely of its own endeavor and not at all indifferent, would believe itself to be completely free, and would think that it continued in motion solely because of its own wish. This is that human freedom, which all boast that they possess, and which consists solely in the fact, that men are conscious of their own desire,

Everyone has as much right as he has might.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

The more you struggle to live,...

The more you struggle to live, the less you live. Give up the notion that you must be sure of what you are doing. Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure....you are above everything distressing.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

As though God had turned away ...

As though God had turned away from the wise, and written his decrees, not in the mind of man but in the entrails of beasts, or left them to be proclaimed by the inspiration and instinct of
fools, madmen, and birds. Such is the unreason to which terror can drive mankind!

I do not believe anyone has reached such perfection, surpassing all others, except Christ, to whom God immediately revealed - without words or visions - the conditions which lead to
salvation.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

I have resolved to demonstrate...

I have resolved to demonstrate by a certain and undoubted course of argument, or to deduce from the very condition of human nature, not what is new and unheard of, but only such things as
agree best with practice.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

In regard to intellect and true virtue, every nation is on a par with the rest, and God has not in these respects chosen one people rather than another.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

In the state of nature, wrong-doing is impossible ; or, if anyone does wrong, it is to himself, not to another.

Everything in nature is a cause from which there flows some effect.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

The multitude always strains a...

The multitude always strains after rarities and exceptions, and thinks little of the gifts of nature; so that, when prophecy is talked of, ordinary knowledge is not supposed to be included. Nevertheless it has as much right as any other to be called Divine.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

There is no fear without some hope, and no hope without some fear.

No to laugh, not to lament, not to detest, but to understand.

The real disturbers of the peace are those who, in a free state, seek to curtail the liberty of judgment which they are unable to tyrannize over.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

The eternal wisdom of God ... ...

The eternal wisdom of God ... has shown itself forth in all things, but chiefly in the mind of man, and most of all in Jesus Christ.

Benedikt Spinoza 262 quotes

The more a government strives to curtail freedom of speech, the more obstinately is it resisted ; not indeed by the avaricious, ... but by those whom good education, sound morality, and
virtue have rendered more free.
