The Balance of Virtue

I think this whole book of ethics boils down virtue(s). A good person is striving towards being virtuous. A virtuous person is someone who has a good balance of virtues. If someone is gluttonous in one virtue but, is starving another virtue he is not virtuous. I don’t think that Aristotle is saying that pleasure is a bad thing, I think he is saying that pleasure in excess is bad as well as not enough pleasure is bad. The same thing applies with money, fame, and generosity. The problem with this is that there is no standard for what is too much, it is different for everyone. What is gluttonous for one may not be enough for someone else. The real challenge comes when you are trying to find the balance that is virtuous for you.
