This bare statement however, although
true, is not at all enlightening. In all departments of human endeavor that have been
reduced to a science, it is true to say that effort ought to be exerted and relaxed
neither too much nor too little, but to the medium amount, and as the right principle
decides. Yet a person knowing this truth will be no wiser than before: for example, he
will not know what medicines to take merely from being told to take everything that
medical science or a medical expert would prescribe.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
