A Much Needed Quote for Our Times
Beautiful print with character and interest, and a good reminder in all endeavors in life.<br /><br />It also captures one of the essential points of not only Aristotle's thinking, but much of the world of the Ancient Greeks': moderation, the Golden Mean, harmony. Of course, this is not what it states, but in order to find the virtuous act, to find the right balance between what otherwise turns into vices (read Nicomachean Ethics), you need to be able to keep two (or more) thoughts in mind at the same time.<br /><br />Also, in a world increasingly feeding on mental fast food with catchy one-liners in social media, this format, in its contradiction to that mental habit of feeding off of one particular line of thought, in content, yet alignment in form, this is a great quote for today. Anywhere.
