Baruch Spinoza

The highest activity a human being can attain is learning for understanding, because to understand is to be free.

Learning

Baruch Spinoza

I would warn you that I do not attribute to nature either beauty or deformity, order or confusion. Only in relation to our imagination can things be called beautiful or ugly, well-ordered or confused.

Beauty

Baruch Spinoza

Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.

Peace

Baruch Spinoza

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
