  2   I,  5  |         good, or happiness, with pleasure; which is the reason why
  3   I,  6  |       But of honour, wisdom, and pleasure, just in respect of their
  4   I,  7  |      something else, but honour, pleasure, reason, and every virtue
  5   I,  8  |         of these, accompanied by pleasure or not without pleasure;
  6   I,  8  |          pleasure or not without pleasure; while others include also
  7   I,  8  |          in itself pleasant. For pleasure is a state of soul, and
  8   I,  8  |           has no further need of pleasure as a sort of adventitious
  9   I,  8  |  adventitious charm, but has its pleasure in itself. For, besides
 10   I,  12 |      advocating the supremacy of pleasure; he thought that the fact
 11  II,  2  |        man who indulges in every pleasure and abstains from none becomes
 12  II,  2  |          the man who shuns every pleasure, as boors do, becomes in
 13  II,  3  |          states of character the pleasure or pain that ensues on acts;
 14  II,  3  |          it is on account of the pleasure that we do bad things, and
 15  II,  3  |         action is accompanied by pleasure and pain, for this reason
 16  II,  3  |      wrong, and especially about pleasure; for this is common to the
 17  II,  3  |      others less, by the rule of pleasure and pain. For this reason,
 18  II,  3  |          is harder to fight with pleasure than with anger, to use
 19  II,  5  |          that are accompanied by pleasure or pain; by faculties the
 20  II,  6  |          and pity and in general pleasure and pain may be felt both
 21  II,  7  |      concerned with the pain and pleasure that are felt at the fortunes

 23  II,  9  |       everything the pleasant or pleasure is most to be guarded against;
 24  II,  9  |     ought, then, to feel towards pleasure as the elders of the people
 25  II,  9  |        saying; for if we dismiss pleasure thus we are less likely
 26 III,  1  |        and nobility do them with pleasure; it is absurd to make external
 27 III,  4  |         error seems to be due to pleasure; for it appears a good when
 28 III,  10 |       animals other than man any pleasure connected with these senses,
 29 III,  10 |     dishes; but they hardly take pleasure in making these discriminations,

 31 III,  11 |         his pain being caused by pleasure), and the temperate man
 32 III,  11 |        be pained for the sake of pleasure. People who fall short with
 33 III,  12 |        the former is actuated by pleasure, the latter by pain, of
 34 III,  12 |       person who feels it, while pleasure does nothing of the sort.
 35 III,  12 |  irrational being the desire for pleasure is insatiable even if it
 36  IV,  1  |        giving; and that too with pleasure or without pain; for that
 37  IV,  1  |          in great, and that with pleasure; he will also take the right
 38  IV,  1  |     provide them with some other pleasure. Hence also most of them
 39  IV,  3  |          hear of the former with pleasure, of the latter with displeasure;
 40  IV,  5  |         anger, producing in them pleasure instead of pain. If this
 41  IV,  6  |           viz. those who to give pleasure praise everything and never
 42  IV,  6  |          pain or at contributing pleasure. For he seems to be concerned
 43  IV,  6  |   harmful, for him to contribute pleasure, he will refuse, and will
 44  IV,  6  |         he chooses to contribute pleasure, and avoids the giving of
 45  IV,  6  |       the sake of a great future pleasure, too, he will inflict small

 47  IV,  7  |     those who make the giving of pleasure or pain their object in
 48  IV,  8  |          Of those concerned with pleasure, one is displayed in jests,
 49   V,  2  |         it-and its motive is the pleasure that arises from gain; while
 50  VI,  5  |       man who has been ruined by pleasure or pain forthwith fails
 51 VII,  3  |       whether with any and every pleasure and pain or with certain
 52 VII,  3  |     always to pursue the present pleasure; while the other does not
 53 VII,  4  |          the things that produce pleasure some are necessary, while
 54 VII,  4  |     excess, the bodily causes of pleasure being necessary (by such
 55 VII,  4  |        of some particular bodily pleasure is blamed not only as a
 56 VII,  4  |          pursues the excesses of pleasure and avoids moderate pains,
 57 VII,  5  |    appetite for unnatural sexual pleasure; but it is also possible
 58 VII,  6  |        commits outrage acts with pleasure. If, then, those acts at
 59 VII,  7  |          them as a result of the pleasure involved, another because

 61 VII,  9  |       yet it was for the sake of pleasure that he did not stand fast-but
 62 VII,  9  |       not stand fast-but a noble pleasure; for telling the truth was
 63 VII,  9  |         anything for the sake of pleasure is either self-indulgent
 64 VII,  9  |        does it for a disgraceful pleasure.~Since there is also a sort
 65 VII,  9  |    latter is such as not to feel pleasure contrary to the rule, while
 66 VII,  9  |        former is such as to feel pleasure but not to be led by it.
 67 VII,  11 |                  11~The study of pleasure and pain belongs to the
 68 VII,  11 |          that happiness involves pleasure; this is why the blessed
 69 VII,  11 |        some people think that no pleasure is a good, either in itself
 70 VII,  11 | incidentally, since the good and pleasure are not the same; (2) others
 71 VII,  11 |     thing in the world cannot be pleasure. (1) The reasons given for
 72 VII,  11 |          given for the view that pleasure is not a good at all are (
 73 VII,  11 |        at all are (a) that every pleasure is a perceptible process
 74 VII,  11 |          in them, e.g. in sexual pleasure; for no one could think
 75 VII,  11 |            e) There is no art of pleasure; but every good is the product
 76 VII,  11 |        thing in the world is not pleasure is that pleasure is not
 77 VII,  11 |          is not pleasure is that pleasure is not an end but a process.~
 78 VII,  12 |          from these grounds that pleasure is not a good, or even the
 79 VII,  12 |       something else better than pleasure, as some say the end is
 80 VII,  12 |         is not right to say that pleasure is perceptible process,
 81 VII,  12 |          being is impeded by the pleasure arising from it; it is foreign
 82 VII,  12 |       more.~(C) The fact that no pleasure is the product of any art
 83 VII,  12 |        are thought to be arts of pleasure.~(D) The arguments based
 84 VII,  12 |         the temperate man avoids pleasure and that the man of practical
 85 VII,  12 |   children and the brutes pursue pleasure, are all refuted by the
 86 VII,  13 |        avoided and bad, is good. Pleasure, then, is necessarily a
 87 VII,  13 |       answer of Speusippus, that pleasure is contrary both to pain
 88 VII,  13 |      since he would not say that pleasure is essentially just a species
 89 VII,  13 |       chief good from being some pleasure, just as the chief good
 90 VII,  13 |     choice; and this activity is pleasure. Thus the chief good would
 91 VII,  13 |         chief good would be some pleasure, though most pleasures might
 92 VII,  13 |       life is pleasant and weave pleasure into their ideal of happiness-and
 93 VII,  13 |      both brutes and men, pursue pleasure is an indication of its
 94 VII,  13 |   neither do all pursue the same pleasure; yet all pursue~pleasure.
 95 VII,  13 |         pleasure; yet all pursue~pleasure. And perhaps they actually
 96 VII,  13 |          actually pursue not the pleasure they think~they pursue nor
 97 VII,  13 |        they pursue, but the same~pleasure; for all things have by
 98 VII,  13 |          is evident also that if pleasure, i.e. the activity of our
 99 VII,  13 |          what end should he need pleasure, if it is not a good but
100 VII,  13 |   neither an evil nor a good, if pleasure is not; why then should
101 VII,  14 |        much of the corresponding pleasure, and that where there can
102 VII,  14 |         alternative to excess of pleasure is not pain, except to the
103 VII,  14 |  excessive and in general bodily pleasure as being a cure for the
104 VII,  14 |       the contrary pain. (Indeed pleasure is thought not to be good
105 VII,  14 |         out both by the contrary pleasure, and by any chance pleasure
106 VII,  14 |      pleasure, and by any chance pleasure if it be strong; and for
107 VII,  14 |       enjoys a single and simple pleasure; for there is not only an
108 VII,  14 |      activity of immobility, and pleasure is found more in rest than
109 VII,  14 | continence and incontinence, and pleasure and pain, both what each
110 VIII,  2 |       that by which some good or pleasure is produced that is useful,
111 VIII,  3 |         who love for the sake of pleasure; it is not for their character
112 VIII,  3 |         who love for the sake of pleasure do so for the sake of what
113 VIII,  3 |        as providing some good or pleasure. Such friendships, then,
114 VIII,  3 |     young people seems to aim at pleasure; for they live under the
115 VIII,  3 |         found pleasant, and such pleasure alters quickly. Young people
116 VIII,  3 |   depends on emotion and aims at pleasure; this is why they fall in
117 VIII,  3 |      good or of pleasure-good or pleasure either in the abstract or
118 VIII,  4 |       Friendship for the sake of pleasure bears a resemblance to this
119 VIII,  4 |      thing from each other (e.g. pleasure), and not only that but
120 VIII,  4 |   beloved. For these do not take pleasure in the same things, but
121 VIII,  4 |        too (for the one finds no pleasure in the sight of the other,
122 VIII,  4 |       But those who exchange not pleasure but utility in their amour
123 VIII,  4 |          profit.~For the sake of pleasure or utility, then, even bad
124 VIII,  4 |       each other for the sake of pleasure, in which sense children
125 VIII,  4 |        is good for the lovers of pleasure. But these two kinds of
126 VIII,  4 |       the sake of utility and of pleasure; for things that are only
127 VIII,  4 |          friends for the sake of pleasure or of utility, being in
128 VIII,  6 |        with a view to utility or pleasure it is possible that many
129 VIII,  6 |         which is for the sake of pleasure is the more like friendship,
130 VIII,  6 |          but in their desire for pleasure they seek for ready-witted
131 VIII,  6 |          thing for another, e.g. pleasure for utility; we have said,
132 VIII,  6 |         for one of them involves pleasure and the other utility, and
133 VIII,  9 |         to arise for the sake or pleasure, viz. religious guilds and
134 VIII,  12|    reasons that both utility and pleasure seem to be found in this
135 VIII,  13|      similarly in friendships of pleasure or utility the friends may
136 VIII,  13|      much even in friendships of pleasure; for both get at the same
137 VIII,  13|    another for not affording him pleasure would seem ridiculous, since
138  IX,  1  |          beloved for the sake of pleasure while the beloved loves
139  IX,  1  |           said that he had given pleasure for pleasure. Now if this
140  IX,  1  |        he had given pleasure for pleasure. Now if this had been what
141  IX,  1  |          would have paid for the pleasure, he will have got what is
142  IX,  3  |   friendship based on utility or pleasure, when our friends no longer
143  IX,  4  |     himself; for he does so with pleasure, since the memories of his
144  IX,  5  |  beginning of friendship, as the pleasure of the eye is the beginning
145  IX,  5  |        utility nor that based on pleasure; for goodwill too does not
146  IX,  8  |          short period of intense pleasure to a long one of mild enjoyment,
147  IX,  9  |          no need of adventitious pleasure); and because he does not
148  IX,  10 |      friends made with a view to pleasure, also, few are enough, as
149  IX,  11 |        pleasant thought of their pleasure at our own good fortune.
150  IX,  12 |          task must be to discuss pleasure.~ ~
