Plotinus

• “Much as there is to be said about the intuition, I will mention only that there are various types or levels of it: the Bergsonian intuition, which occurs predominantly at the normal personality levels, is very differ­ent from that of Plotinus, which is purely spiritual.”

  C. G. Jung and Psychosynthesis, by Roberto Assagioli

• “Enchiridion suggests that “the Platonists” are probably the Neoplatonists such as Plotinus and Proclus since these had much influence on the Greek Fathers as well as on Ambrose and Augustine”

• “In addition he translated important works of writers in the Neoplatonic and Neopythagorean tradition, such as Plotinus, Porphyry, Iamblichus and Proclus.”

• “The Neo-Platonists (such as Plotinus, 205-270) taught a world-system of emanation, whereby the One (like Plato's Form of the Good) flowed into Intellect (the realm of the Forms) and from there into the World-Soul and individual souls, and finally into bodies, from where it returned to itself.”

  Francesco Patrizi

• “And among its greatest members, such as Plotinus, Porphyry, Proclus, the religious influence of the East was distinctly apparent.”

• “Hello Everything was the buzzsaw explosion at the end of "Plotinus", an unusually long statement of his go-to glitch aesthetic that at best sounded like an array of logic gates pleading for mercy.”

  PopMatters

• “(such as Plotinus); second, even the view which Brucker ascribes to Plato himself is “Neo-Platonic” to the extent that it considers the ideas as products of the divine mind.”

  Dictionary of the History of Ideas

• “The Greek philosopher Plotinus likened our lives to the creation of a work of art: How then can you see the sort of beauty a good soul has?”
