Piso, familiaris noster, et alia multa et hoc loco Stoicos irridebat: Quid enim? Ne amores quidem sanctos a sapiente alienos esse arbitrantur. Ne in odium veniam, si amicum destitero tueri. Quod ea non occurrentia fingunt, vincunt Aristonem; An est aliquid per se ipsum flagitiosum, etiamsi nulla comitetur infamia? Quid ad utilitatem tantae pecuniae? Quo studio Aristophanem putamus aetatem in litteris duxisse? Quamquam id quidem licebit iis existimare, qui legerint. Innumerabilia dici possunt in hanc sententiam, sed non necesse est. Suo genere perveniant ad extremum; Utinam quidem dicerent alium alio beatiorem! Iam ruinas videres.

Ait enim se, si uratur, Quam hoc suave! dicturum. Ut in geometria, prima si dederis, danda sunt omnia. Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Hoc enim constituto in philosophia constituta sunt omnia. Graecis hoc modicum est: Leonidas, Epaminondas, tres aliqui aut quattuor; Qui est in parvis malis.

Quamquam haec quidem praeposita recte et reiecta dicere licebit. Et hunc idem dico, inquieta sed ad virtutes et ad vitia nihil interesse. Sed tempus est, si videtur, et recta quidem ad me. Roges enim Aristonem, bonane ei videantur haec: vacuitas doloris, divitiae, valitudo; Earum etiam rerum, quas terra gignit, educatio quaedam et perfectio est non dissimilis animantium. At coluit ipse amicitias.

Ita relinquet duas, de quibus etiam atque etiam consideret. Sed quid attinet de rebus tam apertis plura requirere? Cum sciret confestim esse moriendum eamque mortem ardentiore studio peteret, quam Epicurus voluptatem petendam putat. Ita ne hoc quidem modo paria peccata sunt. A mene tu? Eodem modo is enim tibi nemo dabit, quod, expetendum sit, id esse laudabile. Itaque primos congressus copulationesque et consuetudinum instituendarum voluntates fieri propter voluptatem;

Istam voluptatem perpetuam quis potest praestare sapienti? Quae cum magnifice primo dici viderentur, considerata minus probabantur. Nam memini etiam quae nolo,

oblivisci non possum quae volo. Maximas vero virtutes iacere omnis necesse est voluptate dominante. Neque solum ea communia, verum etiam paria esse dixerunt. Utrum igitur tibi litteram videor an totas paginas commovere? Videamus igitur sententias eorum, tum ad verba redeamus. Eam tum adesse, cum dolor omnis absit;

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cur id non ita fit? Isto modo ne improbos quidem, si essent boni viri. At iam decimum annum in spelunca iacet. Cum salvum esse flentes sui respondissent, rogavit essentne fusi hostes. Neque enim civitas in seditione beata esse potest nec in discordia dominorum domus;

Haec para/doca illi, nos admirabilia dicamus. Nondum autem explanatum satis, erat, quid maxime natura vellet. Quae cum praeponunt, ut sit aliqua rerum selectio, naturam videntur sequi; Sit hoc ultimum bonorum, quod nunc a me defenditur; Ab hoc autem quaedam non melius quam veteres, quaedam omnino relicta. Inde igitur, inquit, ordiendum est. Sed nonne merninisti licere mihi ista probare, quae sunt a te dicta? Quid autem habent admirationis, cum prope accesseris? Minime id quidem, inquam, alienum, multumque ad ea, quae quaerimus, explicatio tua ista profecerit.

Quibus rebus vita consentiens virtutibusque respondens recta et honesta et constans et naturae congruens existimari potest. Nonne videmus quanta perturbatio rerum omnium consequatur, quanta confusio? An potest, inquit ille, quicquam esse suavius quam nihil dolere? Hoc mihi cum tuo fratre convenit. Nam si amitti vita beata potest, beata esse non potest. Praetereo multos, in bis doctum hominem et suavem, Hieronymum, quem iam cur Peripateticum appellem nescio. Et homini, qui ceteris animantibus plurimum praestat, praecipue a natura nihil datum esse dicemus? Quantum Aristoxeni ingenium consumptum videmus in musicis?

Ut id aliis narrare gestiant? Quis enim confidit semper sibi illud stabile et firmum permansurum, quod fragile et caducum sit? Quo tandem modo? Non minor, inquit, voluptas percipitur ex vilissimis rebus quam ex pretiosissimis. Iam in altera philosophiae parte. Nulla erit controversia.

Sed ille, ut dixi, vitiose. Sint modo partes vitae beatae. Quodsi ipsam honestatem undique pertectam atque absolutam. Laboro autem non sine causa; Tum Quintus: Est plane, Piso, ut dicis, inquit. Sed tamen intellego quid velit.
