The old and the morose do not appear to be much given to friendship, for their capacity
to please is small, and nobody can pass his days in the company of one who is distasteful
to him, or not pleasing, since it seems to be one of the strongest instincts of nature to
shun what is painful and seek what is pleasant.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
