Answer 1

Aristotle believed in the concept of moderation and finding the right amount to achieve virtue.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aristotle believed in the concept of moderation and the mean in order to achieve virtue. According to Aristotle, a wise person can find the right amount when dealing with things that admit of a too much and a too little. He would also agree that some actions and feelings are just plain wrong, so there cannot be a right amount concerning them. However, it is important to note that Aristotle did not explicitly state that we should have moderation in all things, so that statement cannot be considered true according to him.

Answer 2

According to Aristotle, true statements about moderation are that we should have moderation in all things, wise people can find the right amount in things, and some actions and feelings are inherently wrong. However, one cannot have too much wisdom, as it is a guiding virtue.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements concerning moderation according to Aristotle that are true are:

• He would agree that we should have moderation in all things. - This is true. Aristotle's ethics emphasize the importance of moderation and finding the mean between excess and deficiency in all aspects of life, which he sees as the path to virtue and well-being.
• Of things that admit of a too much and a too little, a wise person can find the right amount. - This is also true. Aristotle believed that wisdom involves recognizing the proper balance or mean in various situations, avoiding extremes of too much or too little.
• Some actions and feelings are just plain wrong, so there can't be a right amount concerning them. - Aristotle did indeed hold that certain actions and feelings are inherently bad or wrong, such as spite, shamelessness, or envy, and therefore cannot be moderated to a mean.

The statement concerning wisdom:

• One can have too much wisdom, not enough wisdom, or just the right amount of wisdom. - This statement isn't in line with Aristotle's thinking. Wisdom, as a virtue, is always regarded as a positive quality, and one cannot have 'too much' of it because it guides correct action.
