"Moreover, it is not easy to see how knowing that same Ideal Good will help a weaver or carpenter in the practice of his own craft, or how anybody will be a better physician or general for having contempleted the absolute Idea. In fact it does not appear that the physician studies even health in the abstract; he studies the health of the human being--or rather of some particular human being, for it is individuals that he has to care."
Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics (4th Century B.C.)
