For Pleasure Is A State Of Soul,

The Misanthrope, As An Essentially Solitary Man, Is Not A Man At All: He Must Be A Beast Or A God.

Now It Is Evident That The Form Of Government Is Best In Which Every Man, Whoever He Is, Can Act Best And Live Happily.

The Happy Life Is Regarded As A Life In Conformity With Virtue. It Is A Life Which Involves Effort And Is Not Spent In Amusement.

We Must As Second Best, As People Say, Take The Least Of The Evils.

Rightness In Our Choice Of An End Is Secured By [moral] Virtue.
