And that happiness consists in contemplation may be accepted as agreeing both with the
results already reached and with the truth. For contemplation is at once the highest form
of activity （since the intellect is the
highest thing in us, and the objects with which the intellect deals are the highest things
that can be known） , and also it is the most continuous, for we can reflect more
continuously than we can carry on any form of action.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
