Perhaps the greatest philosopher of his time, and surely one the greatest philosophers of all time. Aristotle was alive in Greece from 384-322 B.C.
Aristotle is well remembered for his development of "logic." Do note that he did not (obviously) invent logic, however greatly influenced its progression.
His format on which he based his logic was used for centuries after his death -- and much is still echoed even today.
Specifically, Aristotle produced provocative arguments and commentaries centering around humanity and human functions. Among them: the singular lifestyle that, if adopted plurally, would yield true and sustained happiness to all -- forever. However, after hearing a lecture on the subject, you truly need not look any further than the utopias and dystopias illustrated throughout literature, such as in "The Giver" or "Brave New World." Aristotle's philosophy on 'true happiness,' perhaps original for its time, has become almost as common as a cliche' and just as easily passed off as "wishful thinking."
However, the beauty of logic is that it never actually needs to be congruent with realism.

Aristotle said:
"The individual, when isolated, is not self-sufficing, and therefore he is like a part in relation to the whole. But whoever is unable to live in society, or who has no need of it because he is sufficienct for himself, must be either a beast or a god."

Get the Arihanna mug.She is awesome because the mechanisms of her mind and soul flourish existentially, blanketing all memes with self-destructive seeds, bringing light and clarity to all lost souls in the world, like a fiery beacon of red hair.

Get the Arieleopardess mug.Aricin - from the Scandinavian...meaning son of the eternal king. An Aricin is a blonde, Norwegian descendant who channeled his Viking heritage into X games daredevilry. They demand and receive attention for pushing boundaries in athletics and social situations. Hilarious, charismatic and slightly arrogant...they are edgy, dangerous and kind. Lutherans with a penchant for chaos.
I was bored at the bar and an Aricin wandered up, bought me a whiskey and went home with my underwear. I can't believe he convinced me to autograph them.

Get the Aricin mug.There's somethin' 'bout his manners, a great man with gentleman's attitude, mostly perform in everything he does and has a lot of unmitigated skills. Warrior in a war field and he has a brave and big heart more than anyone can imagine. Unfortunately scared to his own shadow.
