“The ideal man, takes joy in doing favours for others; but he feels ashamed to have others do favours for him. For it is a mark of superiority to confer a kindness; but it is a mark of inferiority to receive it.”

Aristotle is a Greek philosopher of the 4th century BCE. He founded the Lyceum in Athens and wrote extensively on logic, metaphysics, ethics, and natural sciences. His works remain foundational to Western thought.
