Human good turns out to be activity of soul exhibiting excellence, and if there is more than one sort of excellence, in accordance with the best and most complete.For one swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy.

  • -- Aristotle 亚里士多德

人类的善原来是灵魂的活动,表现出卓越,如果有一种以上的卓越,根据最好和最完整的。因为一燕不成夏,一日也不成;所以,一天,或很短的时间,并不能使一个人幸福和快乐。
