Virtue ethics supposes that a virtuous person is morally upright and, therefore, what they do is moral. For example, honesty is expected to be honest in all situations. The actions of that honest person are, therefore, moral. However, living up to the ideals of virtue is challenging because doing so would mean going against the very virtue. For example, a compassionate person may decide to lie to protect the person’s feelings. So in some situations, virtues can be faults if one does not apply practical wisdom. Virtue ethics have different branches. Some virtue ethicists believe being virtuous is sufficient to bring eudaimonia(happiness). Others, like Aristotle, believed that material goods were also necessary.
