The High-minded Man Must Care More For

Man By Nature Desires To Know.

At His Best, Man Is The Noblest Of All Animals; Separated From Law And Justice He Is The Worst.

Justice Is The Loveliest And Health Is The Best. But The Sweetest To Obtain Is The Heart's Desire.

For It Is Owing To Their Wonder That Men Both Now Begin And At First Began To Philosophize... They Were Pursuing Science In Order To Know, And Not For Any Utilitarian End.

Of Cases Where A Man Is Truthful Both In Speech And Conduct When No Considerations Of Honesty Come In, From An Habitual Sincerity Of Disposition. Such Sincerity May Be Esteemed A Moral Excellence; For The Lover Of Truth, Who Is Truthful Even When Nothing Depends On It, Will A Fortiori Be Truthful When Some Interest Is At Stake, Since Having All Along Avoided Falsehood For Its Own Sake, He Will Assuredly Avoid It When It Is Morally Base; And This Is A Disposition That We Praise.
