~ Maimonides

You should recognize that man’s soul, this single entity whose powers and parts we have described, may be compared to matter, and that the power of reasoning is its completed form. As long as the soul lies dormant and does not acquire its form from knowledge, then the nature of the soul is useless and exists in vain.

~ Maimonides

Your purpose...should always be to know...the whole that was intended to be known.

~ Maimonides

The person who wishes to attain human perfection should study logic first, next mathematics, then physics, and, lastly, metaphysics.
