O knihe
Happiness lies in the harmonious realisation of oneself, through the balance of the personality. Harmony is achieved through the practice of virtue, which for Aristotle is the middle ground. Human beings are always in search of beauty, fortune, fame, often impossible dreams, always wanting something more, associating happiness with the satisfaction of pleasures, achieving only dissatisfaction. They want to feel full, but they only get proof of lack. Many philosophers and religious people attribute this human quest to the search for God. For Aristotle, the only way to acquire happiness (Highest Good) is through an activity of the soul according to virtue, not an innate virtue, but a virtue acquired through habit cultivated throughout the individual's life. In fact, what we all long for is to find true and absolute happiness. It's a constant quest.
