Other things mentioned in the show: Aristotle quote "happiness consists in achieving, through the course of a whole lifetime, all the goods – health, wealth, knowledge, friends etc – that lead to the perfection of human nature and to the enrichment of human life. This requires us to make choices, some of which may be very difficult".
