About this quote
This exact wording does not appear in Aristotle's surviving works. The sentiment echoes his emphasis in Nicomachean Ethics that intellectual virtue alone is insufficient — moral virtue, developed through habit and practice, is equally essential. The modern phrasing first appeared in educational literature around the mid-20th century and became attributed to Aristotle, though the earliest confirmed print attribution dates to 1991.
