147 2, 2 | may be given to prove that happiness consists ~in none of the

318 2, 3 | passions. Therefore man's happiness consists in ~an operation
319 2, 3 | Para. 1/4~I answer that, Happiness consists in an operation
320 2, 3 | First because if man's happiness is an operation, it must

322 2, 3 | whom he is made like by happiness. But in things ~pertaining

392 2, 4 | comprehension is necessary for ~Happiness.~Aquin.: SMT FS Q[4] A[3]
393 2, 4 | 1/1~I answer that, Since Happiness consists in gaining the
394 2, 4 | things that are required for Happiness must be gathered from the
395 2, 4 | corresponding ~three in Happiness itself. For perfect knowledge
396 2, 4 | three must concur with ~Happiness; to wit, vision, which is

402 2, 4 | of the will. Therefore ~Happiness, which is the perfect operation

405 2, 4 | of will is necessary for Happiness both ~antecedently and concomitantly.
406 2, 4 | therefore none can obtain Happiness, without rectitude of ~the
407 2, 4 | above (Q[3], A[8]), final ~Happiness consists in the vision of

419 2, 4 | 1/1~OBJ 6: Further, in Happiness man is equal to the angels.
420 2, 4 | Para. 1/3~I answer that, Happiness is twofold; the one is imperfect
421 2, 4 | body is necessary for the happiness of this life. For ~the happiness
422 2, 4 | happiness of this life. For ~the happiness of this life consists in
