QUOTES: various Aristotle for the evening (schoolwork interrupting on my fun again). First, a nice anti-utilitarian argument:
"Now in everything the pleasant or pleasure is most to be guarded against; for we do not judge it impartially."
-EN, II. 9
And I think we can all agree to the truth of the following:
"For men are good in but one way, but bad in many."
-II. 6
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
-The Dutch Ten Commandments to Foil the Nazis
