Additional quotes by Apollonius of Tyana

To speak falsely is the mark of a slave, but the truth is noble.

Plato said that virtue has no master [Republic 617e]. If a person does not honor this principle and rejoice in it, but is purchasable for money, he creates many masters for himself.

If someone gives money to Apollonius, and the giver is someone considered respectable, he will take the money if he needs it. But he will not accept a fee for philosophy even if he does need it.

The soul that does not consider the question of the body’s self-sufficiency cannot make itself self-sufficient. - Apollonius of Tyana
