1 I, 1 | to be that at which all things aim. But a certain difference 2 I, 2 | there is some end of the things we do, which we desire for 3 I, 3 | outline, and in speaking about things which are only for the most 4 I, 3 | precision in each class of things just so far as the nature 5 I, 3 | each man judges well the things he knows, and of these he 6 I, 4 | identifies it with different things, with health when he is 7 I, 4 | begin with what is known, things are objects of knowledge 8 I, 4 | then, we must begin with things known to us. Hence any one 9 I, 4 | best is he who knows all things himself;~Good, he that hearkens 10 I, 6 | only. Further, since of the things answering to one Idea there 11 I, 6 | many sciences even of the things that fall under one category, 12 I, 6 | Let us separate, then, things good in themselves from 13 I, 6 | good in themselves from things useful, and consider whether 14 I, 6 | one would place them among things good in themselves. Or is 15 I, 6 | will be empty. But if the things we have named are also things 16 I, 6 | things we have named are also things good in themselves, the 17 I, 6 | It is surely not like the things that only chance to have 18 I, 7 | else more final than the things that are desirable both 19 I, 7 | it most desirable of all things, without being counted as 20 I, 7 | and, in general, for all things that have a function or 21 I, 7 | look for precision in all things alike, but in each class 22 I, 7 | alike, but in each class of things such precision as accords 23 I, 8 | win, the noble and good things in life.~Their life is also 24 I, 8 | noble find pleasant the things that are by nature pleasant; 25 I, 8 | instruments; and there are some things the lack of which takes 26 I, 9 | surely god-given of all human things inasmuch as it is the best. 27 I, 9 | be among the most godlike things; for that which is the prize 28 I, 12 | whether happiness is among the things that are praised or rather 29 I, 12 | praised or rather among the things that are prized; for clearly 30 I, 12 | But if if praise is for things such as we have described, 31 I, 12 | what applies to the best things is not praise, but something 32 I, 12 | happy. And so too with good things; no one praises happiness 33 I, 12 | it to be better than the things that are praised, and that 34 I, 12 | reference to these all other things are judged. Praise is appropriate 35 I, 12 | that happiness is among the things that are prized and perfect. 36 I, 13 | studied virtue above all things; for he wishes to make his 37 I, 13 | our purposes require.~Some things are said about it, adequately 38 II, 1 | habit.~Again, of all the things that come to us by nature 39 II, 1 | the arts as well. For the things we have to learn before 40 II, 2 | it is the nature of such things to be destroyed by defect 41 II, 2 | health (for to gain light on things imperceptible we must use 42 II, 2 | the evidence of sensible things); both excessive and defective 43 II, 2 | this is also true of the things which are more evident to 44 II, 2 | be most able to do these things. So too is it with the virtues; 45 II, 2 | being habituated to despise things that are terrible and to 46 II, 3 | stands his ground against things that are terrible and delights 47 II, 3 | pleasure that we do bad things, and on account of the pain 48 II, 3 | and to be pained by the things that we ought; for this 49 II, 3 | concerned with the kind of things by which it tends to be 50 II, 3 | ought not", and the other things that may be added. We assume, 51 II, 3 | concerned with these same things. There being three objects 52 II, 4 | doctors, but do none of the things they are ordered to do. 53 II, 5 | consider what virtue is. Since things that are found in the soul 54 II, 5 | or pain; by faculties the things in virtue of which we are 55 II, 5 | states of character the things in virtue of which we stand 56 II, 6 | all of these and suchlike things imply by their names that 57 II, 6 | badness with regard to such things depend on committing adultery 58 II, 7 | the better see that in all things the mean is praise-worthy, 59 II, 8 | contraries are defined as the things that are furthest from each 60 II, 8 | from each other, so that things that are further apart are 61 II, 8 | the latter to courage; for things that are further from the 62 II, 8 | from ourselves; for the things to which we ourselves more 63 II, 9 | But we must consider the things towards which we ourselves 64 II, 9 | perceived by the senses; such things depend on particular facts, 65 II, 9 | intermediate state is in all things to be praised, but that 66 III, 1 | and of punishments. Those things, then, are thought-involuntary, 67 III, 1 | But with regard to the things that are done from fear 68 III, 1 | actions is in him, and the things of which the moving principle 69 III, 1 | fearful sufferings; for the things that "forced" Euripides 70 III, 1 | contributes nothing. But the things that in themselves are involuntary, 71 III, 1 | voluntary. What sort of things are to be chosen, and in 72 III, 1 | relate, then, to any of these things, i.e. of the circumstances 73 III, 1 | describe as involuntary the things one ought to desire; and 74 III, 1 | both to be angry at certain things and to have an appetite 75 III, 1 | an appetite for certain things, e.g. for health and for 76 III, 2 | And wish may relate to things that could in no way be 77 III, 2 | but no one chooses such things, but only the things that 78 III, 2 | such things, but only the things that he thinks could be 79 III, 2 | choice seems to relate to the things that are in our own power.~ 80 III, 2 | to relate to all kinds of things, no less to eternal things 81 III, 2 | things, no less to eternal things and impossible things than 82 III, 2 | eternal things and impossible things than to things in our own 83 III, 2 | impossible things than to things in our own power; and it 84 III, 2 | since it is none of the things we have mentioned? It seems 85 III, 2 | what is chosen before other things.~ 86 III, 3 | deliberation impossible about some things? We ought presumably to 87 III, 3 | deliberation. Now about eternal things no one deliberates, e.g. 88 III, 3 | we deliberate about the things that involve movement but 89 III, 3 | of the stars; nor about things that happen now in one way, 90 III, 3 | Scythians. For none of these things can be brought about by 91 III, 3 | efforts.~We deliberate about things that are in our power and 92 III, 3 | men deliberates about the things that can be done by their 93 III, 3 | should be written); but the things that are brought about by 94 III, 3 | in the same way, are the things about which we deliberate, 95 III, 3 | out, and again about other things in the same ratio, and more 96 III, 3 | Deliberation is concerned with things that happen in a certain 97 III, 3 | event is obscure, and with things in which it is indeterminate. 98 III, 3 | to do it. By "possible" things I mean things that might 99 III, 3 | possible" things I mean things that might be brought about 100 III, 3 | these in a sense include things that can be brought about 101 III, 3 | deliberation is about the things to be done by the agent 102 III, 3 | actions are for the sake of things other than themselves. For 103 III, 3 | choice being one of the things in our own power which is 104 III, 3 | be deliberate desire of things in our own power; for when 105 III, 4 | each man. Now different things appear good to different 106 III, 4 | so happens, even contrary things.~If these consequences are 107 III, 4 | case of bodies also the things that are in truth wholesome 108 III, 4 | that are diseased other things are wholesome—or bitter 109 III, 4 | man judges each class of things rightly, and in each the 110 III, 4 | the truth in each class of things, being as it were the norm 111 III, 4 | measure of them. In most things the error seems to be due 112 III, 5 | is encouraged to do the things that are neither in our 113 III, 5 | ignorant a man does the things which will make him unjust, 114 III, 5 | they are and what sort of things they are concerned with 115 III, 6 | evident; and plainly the things we fear are terrible things, 116 III, 6 | things we fear are terrible things, and these are, to speak 117 III, 6 | with all; for to fear some things is even right and noble, 118 III, 6 | fear, nor in general the things that do not proceed from 119 III, 6 | With what sort of terrible things, then, is the brave man 120 III, 6 | the most terrible of all things; for it is the end, and 121 III, 7 | men; but we say there are things terrible even beyond human 122 III, 7 | sensible man; but the terrible things that are not beyond human 123 III, 7 | degree, and so too do the things that inspire confidence. 124 III, 7 | while he will fear even the things that are not beyond human 125 III, 7 | less, and again to fear things that are not terrible as 126 III, 7 | too with respect to the things that inspire confidence. 127 III, 7 | and who fears the right things and from the right motive, 128 III, 7 | is a mean with respect to things that inspire confidence 129 III, 7 | and it chooses or endures things because it is noble to do 130 III, 8 | passionate; for passion above all things is eager to rush on danger, 131 III, 8 | adulterers do many daring things. (Those creatures are not 132 III, 8 | mark of a brave man to face things that are, and seem, terrible 133 III, 9 | alike, but more with the things that inspire fear; for he 134 III, 9 | who does so towards the things that inspire confidence. 135 III, 10 | animals. To delight in such things, then, and to love them 136 III, 11 | or love, nor for the same things. Hence such craving appears 137 III, 11 | about it; for different things are pleasant to different 138 III, 11 | kinds of people, and some things are more pleasant to every 139 III, 11 | delight either in the wrong things, or more than most people 140 III, 11 | they both delight in some things that they ought not to delight 141 III, 11 | to delight in some of the things they delight in, they do 142 III, 11 | at not getting pleasant things (even his pain being caused 143 III, 11 | craves for all pleasant things or those that are most pleasant, 144 III, 11 | For he neither enjoys the things that the self-indulgent 145 III, 11 | them-nor in general the things that he should not, nor 146 III, 11 | not, and so on; but the things that, being pleasant, make 147 III, 11 | and also other pleasant things if they are not hindrances 148 III, 12 | objects, since there are many things of this sort in life, and 149 III, 12 | temperate man craves for the things be ought, as he ought, as 150 IV, 1 | wealth" we mean all the things whose value is measured 151 IV, 1 | word "prodigality".

The just, then, must be 210 V, 3 | must be between certain things (which are respectively 211 V, 3 | equal, it involves two things; qua just, it is for certain 212 V, 3 | fact just are two, and the things in which it is manifested, 213 V, 3 | persons and between the things concerned; for as the latter 214 V, 3 | concerned; for as the latter the things concerned-are related, so 215 V, 3 | persons and between the things.

The things which are just by virtue 230 V, 7 | markets. Similarly, the things which are just not by nature 231 V, 7 | everywhere by nature the best. Of things just and lawful each is 232 V, 7 | its particulars; for the things that are done are many, 233 V, 7 | species and the nature of the things with which it is concerned.~ 234 V, 8 | incidental way; for he does things which happen to be just 235 V, 8 | injustice; so that there will be things that are unjust but not 236 V, 8 | said before, any of the things in a man’s own power which 237 V, 9 | incontinent man does do things that he does not think he 238 V, 9 | sense in which lifeless things, or a hand, or a servant 239 V, 9 | our power, but to do these things as a result of a certain 240 V, 9 | though these are not the things that are just, except incidentally); 241 V, 9 | consists not in doing these things, except incidentally, but 242 V, 9 | people who participate in things good in themselves and can 243 V, 10 | universal but about some things it is not possible to make 244 V, 10 | this is the reason why all things are not determined by law, 245 V, 10 | by law, that about some things it is impossible to lay 246 V, 11 | suffers and does the same things at the same time. Further, ( 247 VI, 1 | contemplate the kind of things whose originative causes 248 VI, 1 | we contemplate variable things; for where objects differ 249 VI, 2 | work. Now there are three things in the soul which control 250 VI, 2 | even to God,~To make undone things thathave once been done.)~ ~ 251 VI, 3 | capable of being otherwise; of things capable of being otherwise 252 VI, 3 | Therefore it is eternal; for things that are of necessity in 253 VI, 3 | sense are all eternal; and things that are eternal are ungenerated 254 VI, 4 | variable are included both things made and things done; making 255 VI, 4 | included both things made and things done; making and acting 256 VI, 4 | is concerned neither with things that are, or come into being, 257 VI, 4 | by necessity, nor with things that do so in accordance 258 VI, 5 | no one deliberates about things that are invariable, nor 259 VI, 5 | are invariable, nor about things that it is impossible for 260 VI, 5 | there is no demonstration of things whose first principles are 261 VI, 5 | are variable (for all such things might actually be otherwise), 262 VI, 5 | impossible to deliberate about things that are of necessity, practical 263 VI, 5 | to act with regard to the things that are good or bad for 264 VI, 5 | originating causes of the things that are done consist in 265 VI, 6 | knowledge is judgement about things that are universal and necessary, 266 VI, 6 | practical wisdom deal with things that are variable. Nor are 267 VI, 6 | demonstration about some things. If, then, the states of 268 VI, 6 | are never deceived about things invariable or even variable 269 VI, 7 | medicine for all existing things), but a different philosophic 270 VI, 7 | difference; for there are other things much more divine in their 271 VI, 7 | intuitive reason, of the things that are highest by nature. 272 VI, 7 | why we say that they know things that are remarkable, admirable, 273 VI, 7 | other hand is concerned with things human and things about which 274 VI, 7 | concerned with things human and things about which it is possible 275 VI, 7 | no one deliberates about things invariable, nor about things 276 VI, 7 | things invariable, nor about things which have not an end, and 277 VI, 7 | calculation at the best for man of things attainable by action. Nor 278 VI, 8 | politics"; for these alone "do things" as manual labourers "do 279 VI, 8 | as manual labourers "do things".~Practical wisdom also 280 VI, 9 | do not inquire about the things they know about, but good 281 VI, 10 | medicine, the science of things connected with health, or 282 VI, 10 | understanding is neither about things that are always and are 283 VI, 10 | any and every one of the things that come into being, but 284 VI, 10 | come into being, but about things which may become subjects 285 VI, 11 | being able judge about the things with which practical wisdom 286 VI, 11 | relation to other men. Now all things which have to be done are 287 VI, 11 | are also concerned with things to be done, and these are 288 VI, 12 | contemplate none of the things that will make a man happy ( 289 VI, 12 | quality of mind concerned with things just and noble and good 290 VI, 12 | for man, but these are the things which it is the mark of 291 VI, 12 | able to act for knowing the things that are healthy and sound, 292 VI, 12 | they should and all the things that the good man ought), 293 VI, 12 | but the question of the things which should naturally be 294 VI, 12 | as to be able to do the things that tend towards the mark 295 VI, 12 | with acts to be done are things which involve a starting-point, 296 VI, 13 | the other makes us do the things that lead to the end.~But 297 VII, 1 | thought to be included among things good and praiseworthy, and 298 VII, 1 | incontinence and soft, ness among things bad and blameworthy; and 299 VII, 1 | gain.-These, then, are the things that are said.~ 300 VII, 3 | instead of that, by both these things; (b) the second question 301 VII, 3 | of the particular sweet things, the man who can act and 302 VII, 4 | is evident.~Now of the things that produce pleasure some 303 VII, 4 | wealth, and good and pleasant things of this sort). This being 304 VII, 4 | pursues the excesses of things pleasant-and shuns those 305 VII, 4 | pleasant-and shuns those of things painful, of hunger and thirst 306 VII, 4 | some belong to the class of things generically noble and good-for 307 VII, 4 | and good-for some pleasant things are by nature worthy of 308 VII, 5 | 5~(1) Some things are pleasant by nature, 309 VII, 5 | devours the infants, or of the things in which some of the tribes 310 VII, 7 | pursues the excesses of things pleasant, or pursues to 311 VII, 7 | respect of resistance to the things which most men both resist 312 VII, 8 | without sense, but they do the things that senseless people do", 313 VII, 9 | than he should in bodily things, and does not abide by the 314 VII, 11 | pleasures; for some pleasant things are unhealthy. (3) The reason 315 VII, 12 | These are pretty much the things that are said. That it does 316 VII, 12 | former case they enjoy the things that are pleasant without 317 VII, 12 | enjoy even sharp and bitter things, none of which is pleasant 318 VII, 12 | qualification; for as pleasant things differ, so do the pleasures 319 VII, 12 | bad because some pleasant things are unhealthy is like saying 320 VII, 12 | like saying that healthy things are bad because some healthy 321 VII, 12 | bad because some healthy things are bad for money-making; 322 VII, 13 | fortune as well as other things, some people think good 323 VII, 13 | indeed the fact that all things, both brutes and men, pursue 324 VII, 13 | the same~pleasure; for all things have by nature something 325 VII, 14 | and these are among the things pleasant by nature and not 326 VII, 14 | and not incidentally. By things pleasant incidentally I 327 VII, 14 | is thought pleasant); by things naturally pleasant I mean 328 VII, 14 | movement. But "change in all things is sweet", as the poet says, 329 VIII, 1 | and are friends.~Not a few things about friendship are matters 330 VIII, 1 | the fairest tune" and "all things are produced through strife"; 331 VIII, 1 | inadequate indication; for even things different in species admit 332 VIII, 3 | equal in number to the things that are lovable; for with 333 VIII, 4 | take pleasure in the same things, but the one in seeing the 334 VIII, 4 | wrong me" and all the other things that are demanded in true 335 VIII, 4 | utility and of pleasure; for things that are only incidentally 336 VIII, 5 | and do not enjoy the same things, as friends who are companions 337 VIII, 5 | as much towards lifeless things, but mutual love involves 338 VIII, 6 | both parties get the same things from each other and delight 339 VIII, 6 | in each other or in the things, as in the friendships of 340 VIII, 6 | the friends get the same things from one another and wish 341 VIII, 6 | another and wish the same things for one another, or exchange 342 VIII, 7 | most decisively in all good things. But it is clear also in 343 VIII, 7 | therefore will not be good things for them (for friends are 344 VIII, 7 | them (for friends are good things). The answer is that if 345 VIII, 9 | brothers and comrades have all things in common, but the others 346 VIII, 9 | have referred have definite things in common-some more things, 347 VIII, 9 | things in common-some more things, others fewer; for of friendships, 348 VIII, 10| his subjects in all good things; and such a man needs nothing 349 VIII, 10| city-all or most of the good things to themselves, and office 350 VIII, 11| nurture and upbringing.~These things are ascribed to ancestors 351 VIII, 11| justice towards lifeless things. But neither is there friendship 352 VIII, 12| separate individuals. Two things that contribute greatly 353 VIII, 14| the smaller share in all things; therefore to the man who 354 IX, 1 | when they do not get the things that formed the motives 355 IX, 1 | and then do none of the things they said they would, owing 356 IX, 1 | would give money for the things they do know. These people 357 IX, 1 | this happening too with things put up for sale, and in 358 IX, 1 | credit should do so. For most things are not assessed at the 359 IX, 2 | whether one should in all things give the preference to one’ 360 IX, 2 | give the preference in all things to the same person is plain 361 IX, 2 | ought to render different things to parents, brothers, comrades, 362 IX, 2 | speech and common use of all things. To kinsmen, too, and fellow-tribesmen 363 IX, 3 | neither approved of the same things nor delighted in and were 364 IX, 3 | were pained by the same things?
