The virtue of most men is the result of their fear or cowardice. It is not truly virtue. Are fear and cowardice motives able to make a man virtuous? No....

  do what one knows one ought not to be doing, mark him off from ethicists of the classical Greek period. YetAugustine also preserves in his own thinking important strands of ancient Greek thought. Thus, for example, hisdevelopment of the doctrine of the Christian virtues includes an echo of Plato's idea of the unity of the virtues.
