Question

Therefore, if we crave for the goal that is worthy and fitting for man, namely, happiness of life

Answer 1

Take only the true path or the right path which is befitting for human life . Following the right path one can enjoy the true spirit of worldly life and enjoy happiness in life . Such a person can face any kind environment without any difficulty.
He is dedicating anything and everything in life before God and face the hard realities in life smartly.
SO always crave for the goal that is worthy for bringing happiness alone in your life.

Answer 2

Yes, it's incomplete. Maybe a line or two were dropped out from the print... "IF" premises must end with a "THEN".

"...IF we crave for the goal that is worthy and fitting for man, namely, happiness, (missing text?: THEN it may be said that we have learned the value) of life."

But personally, I disagree that happiness, in and of itself, is a worthy goal. It's just an emotion. How can you make an emotion your goal? That it's a choice to be happy, I get that. But a goal "worthy and fitting for man"?!... But I digress.

Answer 3

Those things, however, are immaterial, eternal, without end, and it is in their nature to persist ever the same and unchanging, abiding by their own essential being, and each one of them is called real in the proper sense. But what are involved in birth and destruction, growth and diminution, all kinds of change and participation, are seen to vary continually, and while they are called real things, by the same term as the former, so far as they partake of them, they are not actually real by their own nature; for they do not abide for even the shortest moment in the same condition, but are always passing over in all sorts of changes. To quote the word of Timaeus, in Plato, "What is that which always is, and has no birth, and what is that which is always becoming but never is? The one is apprehended by the mental processes, with reasoning, and is ever the same; the other can be guessed at by opinion in company with unreasoning sense, a thing which becomes and passes away, but never really is."
Therefore, if we crave for the goal that is worthy and fitting for man, namely, happiness of life — and this is accomplished by philosophy alone and by nothing else, and philosophy, as I said, means for us desire for wisdom, and wisdom the science of the truth in things, and of things some are properly so called, others merely share the name — it is reasonable and most necessary to distinguish and systematize the accidental qualities of things.
Things, then, both those properly so called and those that simply have the name, are some of them unified and continuous, for example, an animal, the universe, a tree, and the like, which are properly and peculiarly called 'magnitudes'; others are discontinuous, in a side-by-side arrangement, and, as it were, in heaps, which are called 'multitudes,' a flock, for instance, a people, a heap, a chorus, and the like. 2
Wisdom, then, must be considered to be the knowledge of these two forms. Since, however, all multitude and magnitude are by their own nature of necessity infinite — for multitude starts from a definite root and never ceases increasing; and magnitude, when division beginning with a limited whole is carried on, cannot bring the dividing process to an end, but proceeds therefore to infinity 3 — and since sciences are always sciences of limited things, and never of infinites, it is accordingly evident that a science dealing either with magnitude, per se, or with multitude, per se, could never be formulated, for each of them is limitless in itself, multitude in the direction of the more, and magnitude in the direction of the less. A science, however, would arise to deal with something separated from each of them, with quantity, set off from multitude, and size, set off from magnitude.

Answer 4

Its very simple..for man the best goal is to attain happiness and it costs nothing..
for woman..well its shopping :-) the best goal (which in turn makes the goal of man a proper zero which is again 'gol' (circular)

Answer 5

Hapiness is never achieved. You have never ever bathed clearing all your dirt, it is temporary. You get dirty again and you bathe again. Similarly you get satisfied or happy only to get unhappy. We keep learning and improving the day death takes us even that day we are un happy.

In simple terms , hapiness is a chain of activity and keeps getting included as and when we achieve it , there is always the missing link.

Keep on gaining happiness, you loose it to gain it again.

Answer 6

You should have also given the source.

Quotations have to be looked into word by word to know of their true meanings.

In this case; the author is trying to advice that happiness of life itself; should be more important to man than happiness of the life of self or happiness of self;

Life is more important to man; than his own self when compared to life.
