THOMAS HOBBES

QOUTES

Leisure is the mother of philosophy.

I am about to take my last voyage, a great leap in the
dark.
The condition of man... is a condition of war of everyone
against everyone.
Force and fraud are in war the two cardinal virtues.
Curiosity is the lust of the mind.
Science is the knowledge of consequences, and
dependence of one fact upon another.
A man's conscience and his judgment is the same thing;
and as the judgment, so also the conscience, may be
erroneous.
I put for the general inclination of all mankind, a perpetual
and restless desire of power after power, that ceaseth
only in death.
The life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.
Words are the money of fools.

QOUTES
Curiosity is the lust of the mind.
Thomas Hobbes
Scientia potentia est.
Knowledge is power.
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan
Hell is truth seen too late.
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan
God put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right
now I'm so far behind that I'll never die".
Thomas Hobbes

The universe, the whole mass of things that are, is corporeal, that is to
say, body, and hath the dimensions of magnitude, length, breadth and
depth. Every part of the universe is body and that which is not body is
no part of the universe, and because the universe is all, that which is no
part of it is nothing, and consequently nowhere.
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan

Covenants, without the sword, are but words and of no strength to

secure a man at all.
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan

... it is one thing to desire, another to be in capacity fit for what we

desire.
Thomas Hobbes, Man and Citizen:

If men are naturally in a state of war, why do they always carry arms and
why do they have keys to lock their doors?
Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan
