Roger Scruton Quote
The seclusion of Spinoza’s life was necessitated by intense labour and intellectual discipline, and his frugality expressed independence of spirit rather than meanness or self-concern. The strength of Spinoza’s social feelings, and his Aristotelian emphasis on friendship as a necessary human good, are abundantly shown in the Ethics.
