Sentences with SYNESIS (5)
Therefore, just as "eubulia" which refers to counsel, is connected with prudence, and "synesis" and "gnome" which refer to judgment, so also ought something to have been assigned corresponding to use.
Hence there is need, besides _euboulia_, for another virtue, which judges well, and this is called _synesis._ Reply Obj.
First directly, on the part of the cognitive power itself, for instance, because it is imbued, not with distorted, but with true and correct ideas: this belongs to _synesis_ which in this respect is a special virtue.
Secondly indirectly, through the good disposition of the appetitive power, the result being that one judges well of the objects of appetite: and thus a good judgment of virtue results from the habits of moral virtue; but this judgment is about the ends, whereas _synesis_ is rather about the means.
Therefore _synesis_ extends to all matters of judgment, and consequently there is no other virtue of good judgment called _gnome._ Obj.
