Aristotle’s concept on virtue

“(Friendship)… is some sort of excellence or virtue, and it is, moreover, most indispensable for life(Aristotle, 214). In his writing, Aristotle claims that without friendship it is merely impossible for one to live a complete and virtuous life. In this paper I will compare the virtues of the good person to those of the bad person. I will also explain the difference between the three kinds of friendships and how what kind of friendship one …

…that a friend is something desirable. But what is desirable for a happy man he must have or else he will be deficient in that respect (and consequently, not supremely happy)(Aristotle, 267).” Here he says that friends are a part of our own self and that even if everything else in one’s life is perfectly virtuous, but he does not have a good friend, then it is impossible for him to be truly happy.
