[14]
But the law also prescribes certain conduct: the conduct of a brave man, for example not to desert one's post, not to run
away, not to throw down one's arms; that of a temperate man, for example not to commit
adultery or outrage; that of a gentle man, for example not to strike, not to speak evil;
and so with actions exemplifying the rest of the virtues and vices, commanding these and
forbidding those—rightly if the law has been rightly enacted, not so well if it
has been made at random.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
