[10]
And he behaves in the same manner as regards
honors and offices also: all these things he will relinquish to his friend, for this is
noble and praiseworthy for himself. He is naturally therefore thought to be virtuous, as
he chooses moral nobility in preference to all other things. It may even happen that he
will surrender to his friend the performance of some achievement, and that it may be
nobler for him to be the cause of his friend's performing it than to perform it himself.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
