Aquinas transposed Aristotle's view of happiness as the purpose of life – a view coupled with well being, moderation, virtue and fulfillment. For Aquinas all of these good things were realized by knowing God and could be acquired by practice and also, most importantly for the Church, infused into believers by the grace of God mediated by Church sacraments.
Thomas Aquinas was an avid reader of Aristotle and sought to reconcile Greek philosophy with the collection of theological productions. He said that although philosophy and theology seem to disagree on some points, they only differ in their interpretation, since both seek the truth. Thus the religion of philosophers is to know the foundation of things, while theology is concerned with human actions.
