The wisest statuses are smart statements with meaning! Quotes from the wisest people. Confucius, Hemingway, Churchill

V Ancient Greece the founders of ancient philosophy are "7 wise men". Why in quotes? Because in reality there were more wise men. There are several lists where they appear different names... But the number is the same everywhere.

The first list that has come down to us belongs to Plato and dates back to the IV century. BC. According to Plato in the list of "Seven Wise Men" are located: Thales of Miletus, Bias Prienskiy, Solon of Athens, Pittacus of Mitilensk, Chilo of Spartan, Mison Henay, Cleobulus of Lindi.

A later version of the list belongs to Diogenes Laertius (Laertius). No, this is not the Diogenes who lived in the barrel. Diogenes Laertius is a late antique historian of philosophy. So in his list, instead of the little-known Mison, there is the name of the tyrant ruler Periander of Corinth. It is believed that Plato deliberately removed Periander because of his hatred of despots and tyrants. There are other lists as well. All of them invariably contain 4 names: Thales, Bias, Solon and Pittak. Over time names of sages overgrown with legends. This is how the ancient Greek philosopher Plutarch in his work "The Feast of the Seven Wise Men" described their nonexistent meeting in Corinth.

So many words have been said by wise people about love, about the relationships of people close in spirit, on this topic for many centuries philosophical disputes flared up and died out, leaving behind only the most truthful and apt statements about life. They have survived to our time, perhaps many sayings about happiness, and how beautiful love is, have undergone some changes, however, they are still filled with deep meaning.

And of course, it is much more interesting not just to read a solid black and white text, killing your own eyesight (although, of course, no one dares to belittle the value of the thoughts of great people), but to look at beautiful, funny and positive pictures with graceful design, sinking into the soul.

Wise sayings clothed in cool photos, you will remember for a long time, because this way the visual memory will train even better - you will remember not only funny and positive thoughts, but also the images captured in the images.

Nice addition, isn't it? Look smart, positive pictures about love, saturated with deep meaning, read about how beautiful life is in all its manifestations, mark cool and clever phrases of wise men to yourself that are suitable for status on pages on social networks - and at the same time train your memory.

You can remember short, but surprisingly well-aimed and clever statements of great people about happiness, about the meaning of life, in order to gracefully present your knowledge to the interlocutor in a conversation.

We have selected the best, most funny pictures to cheer up - here are funny, cool images that will make you smile, even if before that the mood was at zero; here are smart, philosophical phrases about people, about the meaning of life, about happiness and love, which are more suitable for thoughtful reading in the evenings, and of course, how you can ignore funny photos about how beautiful love is, how it affects people, forcing them to do all sorts of stupid things in the name of love.

All this is a part of our life, all this is the thoughts of great people who lived before us many years ago.

But look how fresh, how relevant their statements about love and happiness are today. And how good it is that the contemporaries of the sages preserved their clever thoughts for people, which will come later, for you and me.

Pictures filled with a wide variety of content - about people whose life is not so beautiful without love, about people for whom happiness lies, on the contrary, in loneliness and knowing oneself - everything is presented to your exquisite taste. After all, it is impossible to reliably answer - what is happiness, for example? And is love really so beautiful as poets, artists and writers of all times and peoples used to portray it?

You can only comprehend these secrets yourself. Well, so that it is not so difficult on the way to achieving the goal, you can always spy on wise thoughts about certain life situations.

You can send beautiful and funny, interesting pictures to a loved one, and not necessarily your other half.

Best friend, parents, and even just a colleague with whom you have established friendly relations - everyone will be pleased to receive such a small sign of attention, filled with meaning, and allowing you to think about how beautiful it is, despite minor troubles and moments of bad mood.

Thoughts are material. So, you always need to think positively, and thereby attract positive things to yourself - good luck, promotion, and maybe true love?

Print out and hang on the wall at home or in the office funny and cool phrases about love with a deep meaning, so that every time you enter the room, you will stumble upon them. Thus, already subconsciously, you will become much more loyal to petty squabbles.

Be a good fairy for those you care about: cool and beautiful pictures sent to a friend will serve as a good basis for raising your spirits if you cannot personally do this for various reasons - whether it is a working day, or completely different places of residence.

You can not only download about people to your gadget so that they are always at hand.

You can save the entire selection to your page in social network so that smart and beautiful sayings about happiness always accompany you and set you up for a positive. Read funny phrases about love in the morning - and your quarrel with your second half will no longer seem like a disaster and the end of the world.
