Σελίδα 128 - Saxa movere sono testudinis et prece blanda Ducere quo vellet. Fuit haec sapientia quondam, Publica privatis secernere, sacra profanis, Concubitu prohibere vago, dare jura maritis, Oppida moliri, leges incidere ligno ; Sic honor et nomen divinis vatibus atque 400 Carminibus venit.
Σελίδα 415 - That whatever is, always has been from eternity, without deriving its existence from any prior principle ; that nature is one and without limit ; that what is one is similar in all its parts, else it would be many ; that the one infinite, eternal, and homogeneous universe, is immutable and incapable of change...

Taking it for granted, that every...
Σελίδα 145 - Be r.ot unmindful of the miseries of others. If you are handsome, do handsome things ; if deformed, supply the defects of nature by your virtues. Be slow in undertaking, but resolute in executing. Praise not a worthless man for the sake of his wealth. Whatever good you do, ascribe it to the gods.

Σελίδα 256 - He maintained, that they do not always correspond to the real nature of things, and that there is no infallible method of determining when they are true or false, and consequently that they afford no ce'rtain criterion of truth.
