Virtue is its own reward, and brings with it the truest and highest pleasure; but if we cultivate it only for pleasure's sake, we are selfish, not religious, and will never gain the pleasure, because we can never have the virtue.
Cardinal Newman

For most men, and most circumstances, pleasure /tangible material prosperity in this world /is the safest test of virtue. Progress has ever been through the pleasures rather than through the extreme sharp virtues, and the most virtuous have leaned to excess rather than to asceticism.

Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. -- John 15:4 (NIV)
Jesus Christ
The misfortune of the wise is better than the prosperity of the fool.
Epicurus
We had been trying to communicate the cooperative's difference by ourselves, with our own efforts. Aligning with Touchstone Energy gives us new tools for getting that message out. We think that Touchstone offers so much more - ways to involve local business, find potential sites for new industry to locate. Over the next few months, we'll be rolling out Touchstone Energy-related programs that will underscore the benefits of cooperative membership.

The career of a writer is comparable to that of a woman of easy virtue. You write first for pleasure, later for the pleasure of others and finally for money.

If virtue promises happiness, prosperity and peace, then progress in virtue is progress in each of these for to whatever point the perfection of anything brings us, progress is always an approach toward it.
