More on Virtue
“Virtue is our true wealth and the true reward of its possessor; it cannot be lost, it never deserts us until life leaves us.”
“No longer talk at all about the kind of man that a good man ought to be, but be such”
“If a man of good natural disposition acquires Intelligence [as a whole], then he excels in conduct, and the disposition which previously only resembled Virtue, will now be Virtue in the true sense. Hence just as with the faculty of forming opinions [the calculative faculty] there are two qualities, Cleverness and Prudence, so also in the moral part of the soul there are two qualities, natural virtue and true Virtue; and true Virtue cannot exist without Prudence.”
