What evidence can you cite to support your position? 2. Do you agree that virtue is a matter of balance and moderation? Can extreme actions/emotions ever be virtuous?

In his book, Nicomachean Ethics Aristotle talks about the virtuous or vicious as a character of the person that is not inborn rather it is the circumstances and the situation in one’s life that develops these characters. I do agree with his point for no newborn baby is vicious or virtuous rather they are like an empty vessel which fills itself with whatever elements that they are filled by the society.
