  • Notes on Nicomachean Ethics 1173 a 2–5

This means that the virtuous person must be motivated by sound desires, and have a well-developed power of reasoning. Virtue, therefore, is manifested both in the state of the desires and in the reasoning powers. Aristotle puts these two requirements on the excellent person in terms of two kin…
