  It is true that, if I advise someone “Get drunk”, he might respond “Are you telling me to have a hangover?” Yet this inference is not acceptable as leading from one intention to another; for predicted side-effects of realizing one’s intentions are not thereby intended, even if (in another case) they are welcome. Inferences that may take one from one intention to another need rather to relate, as Aristotle intended (E) (though its wording is actually ambiguous), to means towards, or ways of, achieving a given goal.
