 3   I,  8  |          win, and rightly win, the noble and good things in life.~
 4   I,  8  |          but the lovers of what is noble find pleasant the things
 5   I,  8  |            who does not rejoice in noble actions is not even good;
 6   I,  8  |         But they are also good and noble, and have each of these

 8   I,  8  |     impossible, or not easy, to do noble acts without the proper
 9   I,  9  |          what is greatest and most noble would be a very defective
10   I,  9  |           viz. good and capable of noble acts.~It is natural, then,

14  II,  3  |            three of avoidance, the noble, the advantageous, the pleasant,
15  II,  3  |            of choice; for even the noble and the advantageous appear
16  II,  9  |         both rare and laudable and noble.~Hence he who aims at the
17 III,  1  |          greater evils or for some noble object (e.g. if a tyrant
18 III,  1  |            in return for great and noble objects gained; in the opposite

24 III,  5  |           if to act, where this is noble, is in our power, not to
25 III,  5  |          not to act, where this is noble, is in our power, to act,
26 III,  5  |           it is in our power to do noble or base acts, and likewise
27 III,  5  |           they honour those who do noble acts, as though they meant
28 III,  5  |          what is greatest and most noble, and what we cannot get
29 III,  6  |           things is even right and noble, and it is base not to fear
30 III,  6  |           is fearless in face of a noble death, and of all emergencies

33 III,  7  |          Therefore the end also is noble; for each thing is defined
34 III,  7  |         end. Therefore it is for a noble end that the brave man endures
35 III,  7  |       endures things because it is noble to do so, or because it
36 III,  7  |            death not because it is noble but to fly from evil.~
37 III,  8  |           shame and to desire of a noble object (i.e. honour) and
38 III,  8  |       compulsion but because it is noble to be so.~(2) Experience
39 III,  8  |           for a man, because it is noble to do so and disgraceful
40 III,  9  |            face them because it is noble to do so or because it is
41 III,  9  |        more so, because he chooses noble deeds of war at that cost.
42 III,  11 |             or contrary to what is noble, or beyond his means. For
43 III,  12 |        rational principle; for the noble is the mark at which both
44  IV,  1  |       characteristic to do what is noble than not to do what is base;
45  IV,  1  |       doing good and doing what is noble, and taking implies having
46  IV,  1  |           Now virtuous actions are noble and done for the sake of
47  IV,  1  |           done for the sake of the noble. Therefore the liberal man,
48  IV,  1  |           give for the sake of the noble, and rightly; for he will
49  IV,  1  |            not for the sake of the noble but for some other cause,
50  IV,  1  |           prefer the wealth to the noble act, and this is not characteristic
51  IV,  1  |      possessions, not as something noble but as a necessity, that
52  IV,  1  |        right time, and where it is noble to do so. It is highly characteristic
53  IV,  1  |      contrary to what is right and noble, he will be pained, but
54  IV,  1  |         not liberal; for it is not noble, nor does it aim at nobility,
55  IV,  1  |        live with a view to what is noble.~The prodigal man, then,
56  IV,  3  |        people stand back even from noble actions and undertakings,
57  IV,  4  |            to be honoured even for noble reasons. But sometimes we
58  IV,  4  |       manly and a lover of what is noble, and the unambitious man
59  IV,  7  |            and culpable, and truth noble and worthy of praise. Thus
60   V,  3  |     oligarchy with wealth (or with noble birth), and supporters of
61  VI,  12 |     concerned with things just and noble and good for man, but these
62  VI,  12 |           practical wisdom what is noble and just, let us begin a
63  VI,  12 |         hit it. Now if the mark be noble, the cleverness is laudable,
64 VII,  4  |        class of things generically noble and good-for some pleasant
65 VII,  4  |        objects which are naturally noble and good, e.g. those who
66 VII,  9  |           did not stand fast-but a noble pleasure; for telling the
67 VII,  9  |          for telling the truth was noble to him, but he had been
68 VII,  14 |        much to be chosen, viz. the noble pleasures, but not the bodily
69 VIII,  1 |           of life it stimulates to noble actions – "two going together"-
70 VIII,  1 |            only necessary but also noble; for we praise those who
71 VIII,  6 |          utility is with a view to noble objects, but in their desire
72 VIII,  13|        while they wish for what is noble, choose what is advantageous;
73 VIII,  13|            advantageous; now it is noble to do well by another without
74  IX,  2  |            the gift is exceedingly noble or exceedingly necessary,
75  IX,  7  |          to the benefactor that is noble which depends on his action,
76  IX,  7  |           patient there is nothing noble in the agent, but at most
77  IX,  7  |          his work remains (for the noble is lasting), but for the
78  IX,  7  |            away. And the memory of noble things is pleasant, but
79  IX,  8  |     dictates, and desiring what is noble from desiring what seems
80  IX,  8  |            exceptional degree with noble actions all men approve
81  IX,  8  |          to strive towards what is noble and strain every nerve to
82  IX,  8  |            himself profit by doing noble acts, and will benefit his
83  IX,  8  |        enjoyment, a twelvemonth of noble life to many years of humdrum
84  IX,  8  |       existence, and one great and noble action to many trivial ones.

86  IX,  8  |           greater share in what is noble. In this sense, then, as
87  IX,  10 | superfluous, and hindrances to the noble life; so that we have no
