Aristotle: Part 1

Got a few posts about 'Aristotle' today. This first one concerns a work called Aristotle's Masterpiece. This was first published in the late 17th century and was written by an unknown author falsely claiming to be Aristotle. I found a few choice quotes about red hair in its pages.

Q. Why doth red hair grow white sooner than hair of any other colour?

A. Because redness is an infirmity of the hair; for it is engendered of a weak and infirm matter, that is, of matter corrupted with the flowers of the woman; and therefore it waxes white sooner than any other colour.

And;

He whose hair is of a reddish complexion, is for the most part, if not always, proud, deceitful, detracting and full of envy. 

Now onto Part 2.
