What [Aristiotle] wants to do is to lay the foundations of a moral science with thinking that stems from humanity's deep desiers. His fundamental question is not, "What ought we to do?" but "What do we really want to do?" Aristotle's ethics are not therefore based on an idea but on the desire for fullness of life inscribed in every human being. - Jean Vanier, Made For Happiness, - [Jean Vanier, Made for Happiness, pages x-xi quoted in Jean Vanier: Essential Writings, ed C Whitney-Brown, page 26]
