(It is further manifest that, though both to suffer and to do injustice are
evils—for the former is to have less and the latter to have more than the mean,
corresponding1 to what is health-giving in medicine and
conducive to fitness in athletic training—nevertheless to do injustice is the
worse evil, for it is reprehensible, implying vice in the agent, and vice utter and
absolute—or nearly so, for it is true that not every unjust act voluntarily
committed implies vice—, whereas to suffer injustice does not necessarily imply
vice or injustice in the victim.
1 This clause has no grammatical connection with the rest of the sentence; Ramsauer brackets it, Rassow supplies before it τὸ δὲ δικαιοπραγεῖν μέσον, ‘whereas just conduct is a mean.’
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
