“What is the nature of the good life? Does happiness lie in feeling good, as hedonists believe, or in doing and being good, as Aristotle and his school (the virtue ethicists) insisted? Feeling good is not enough. You must commit to a cause greater than yourself. Only then will you find meaning in your life.”
