Text Quotes
The world is knowable, harmonious, and good (Plotinus Quotes)
Pleasure and distress, fear and courage, desire and aversion, where have these affections and experiences their seat?Clearly, either in the Soul alone, or in the Soul as employing the body, or in some third entity deriving from both. And for this third entity, again, there are two possible modes: it might be either a blend or a distinct form due to the blending. (Plotinus Quotes)
God is not external to anyone, but is present with all things, though they are ignorant that He is so. (Plotinus Quotes)
We ourselves possess Beauty when we are true to our own being; ugliness is in going over to another order (Plotinus Quotes)
God is not external to anyone, but is present with all things, though they are ignorant that He is so (Plotinus Quotes)
Each one of us is part of the soul of the universe (Plotinus Quotes)
Mankind is poised midway between the gods and the beasts (Plotinus Quotes)
There is one and the same soul in many bodies (Plotinus Quotes)
We are not separated from spirit, we are in it (Plotinus Quotes)
Fear must be entirely banished. The purified soul will fear nothing (Plotinus Quotes)
Knowing demands the organ fitted to the object (Plotinus Quotes)
Knowledge, if it does not determine action, is dead to us (Plotinus Quotes)
Withdraw into yourself and look (Plotinus Quotes)
Life is the flight of the alone to the alone (Plotinus Quotes)
It is in virtue of unity that beings are beings (Plotinus Quotes)
Wherever it lies, under earth or over earth, the body will always rot (Plotinus Quotes)
The soul that beholds beauty becomes beautiful (Plotinus Quotes)
In this state of absorbed contemplation, there is no longer any question of holding an object in view; the vision is such that seeing and seen are one; object and act of vision have become identical (Plotinus Quotes)
Beauty addresses itself chiefly to sight, but there is a beauty for the hearing too, as in certain combinations so words and in all kinds of music; for melodies and cadences are beautiful; and minds that lift themselves above the realm of sense to a higher order are aware of beauty in the conduct of life, in actions, in character, in the pursuits of the intellect; and there is the beauty of the virtues (Plotinus Quotes)
The stars are like letters that inscribe themselves at every moment in the sky. Everything in the world is full of signs. All events are coordinated. All things depend on each other. Everything breathes together (Plotinus Quotes)
We must close our eyes and invoke a new manner of seeing... a wakefulness that is the birthright of us all, though few put it to use (Plotinus Quotes)
All teems with symbol; the wise man is the man who in any one thing can read another (Plotinus Quotes)
Nature is but an image of wisdom, the last thing of the soul; nature being a thing which doth only do, but not know (Plotinus Quotes)
Beauty is rather a light that plays over the symmetry of things than that symmetry itself (Plotinus Quotes)
It is bad enough to be condemned to drag around this image in which nature has imprisoned me. Why should I consent to the perpetuation of the image of this image? (Plotinus Quotes)
Cut away all that is excessive, straighten all that is crooked, bring light to all that is overcast, labour to make all one glow of beauty and never cease chiselling your statue, until there shall shine out on you from it the godlike splendour of virtue, until you shall see the perfect goodness surely established in the stainless shrine (Plotinus Quotes)
Withdraw into yourself and look. And if you do not find yourself beautiful as yet, do as the creator of a statue that is to be made beautiful; the sculptor cuts away here, smoothes there, makes this line lighter, this other purer, until he or she has shown a beautiful face upon the statue (Plotinus Quotes)
As Plotinus tells us, we elected the body, the parents, the place, and the circumstances that suited the soul and that, as the myth says, belongs to its necessity (Plotinus Quotes)
Plotinus thought that the entire world has a single soul. He also thought that each animal and plant and of course human, has an individual soul. (Plotinus Quotes)
As Plotinus tells us, we elected the body, the parents, the place, and the circumstances that suited the soul and that, as the myth says, belongs to its necessity. (Plotinus Quotes)
