"As Aristotle said, 'Excellence is a habit.'

He only wants to relax until he's ready to renew such a feeling all over again because to him, all else has become absolutely trivial."

To repose in perfection is the desire of all those who strive for excellence, and is not nothingness a form of perfection?"
