Have a little read: ... " [Friendship] is a virtue, or involves virtue. Furthermore, it is most necessary for our life. For no one would choose to live without friends even if he had all the other goods." (119) In his writing, Aristotle claims that without friendship it is merely impossible for one to live a complete and virtuous life. Friendship carries a high importance for Aristotle. It is one of the essential components of the good life, and the value of friendship is in having and enjoying it. In this paper, I will discuss Aristotle's perspective of friendship. This paper will not try to refute that friendship is a virtue, but rather take a different path by discussing how friendship may have changed in the modern world and where the modern world may still hold the same value for friendship. Further, I will discuss self-love and the paradoxes that come along with Aristotle's self-love
