Aristotle
There are, then, three states of mind ... two vices--that of excess, and that of defect and one virtue--the mean and all these are in a certain sense opposed to one another for the extremes are not only opposed to the mean, but also to one another and the mean is opposed to the extremes.
Aristotle

Aristotle
Character is revealed through action.
Aristotle
The good man is he for whom, because he is virtuous, the things that are absolutely good are good it is also plain that his use of these goods must be virtuous and in the absolute sense good.
Aristotle
We are what we repeatedly do.
Aristotle
If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be best attained when all persons alike share in government to the utmost.
Aristotle
To be angry is easy. But to be angry with the right man at the right time and in the right manner, that is not easy.
Aristotle
Consider pleasures as they depart, not as they come.
Aristotle
Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.
Aristotle
Some vices miss what is right because they are deficient, others because they are excessive, in feelings or in actions, while virtue finds and chooses the mean.
Aristotle
Happiness is the highest good
Aristotle
