Habit and Reflection in Morality

I begin with a difficult passage from the Nicomachean Ethics . “... Anyone who is to listen intelligently to discussion about what is good or just or, in general, of social concern must have been brought up in good habits. For the starting-point is the “that”, and if this is plain enough to him he will not need the “because” as well. And a person so brought up either has or can easily get starting-points.”
