Aristotle

Aristotle (384-322 BCE)

“While it is desirable to secure what is good in the case of an individual, to do so in the case of a people or state is something finer and more sublime.”

  • From The Nicomachean Ethics (Bekker number 1094b) by Aristotle, translated by J. A. K. Thomson (Penguin Classics, 2004).
