Question for Discussion: The Good Life
Another philosophical movement during the Hellenistic Period were the Hedonists. The Hedonists (such as Aristippus (Links to an external site.))  argued that living a good life means experiencing as much pleasure as possible. One must be smart about this and be careful not to leap on a source of pleasure that will lead to long-term harm. Still, Aristippus believed that one should always seek pleasure at all times.
