And that
which is more free from pain and accompanied by pleasure is a greater good; for
there is more than one good, since pleasure and freedom from pain combined are
both goods. And of two goods the greater is that which, added to one and the
same, makes the whole greater.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 22, translated by J. H. Freese. Aristotle. Cambridge and London. Harvard University Press; William Heinemann Ltd. 1926.
