aristotle definition of happiness
Happiness: According to Aristotle, happiness is the only end or good that we desire for its own sake, and it is for the sake of happiness that we desire all other ends or goods.appiness, as the ethical end, does not simply consist in moral virtue, however, but includes intellectual virtue as well, and complete happiness is a contemplative as well as a practical activity. Yet, Aristotle does not exclude all of the common-sense notions of happiness.
