Quid enim mihi potest esse optatius quam cum Catone, omnium virtutum auctore, de virtutibus disputare? Videsne quam sit magna dissensio? Ratio quidem vestra sic cogit. Quamvis enim depravatae non sint, pravae tamen esse possunt.
Stoici autem, quod finem bonorum in una virtute ponunt, similes sunt illorum; Sed in rebus apertissimis nimium longi sumus. Quod quidem iam fit etiam in Academia. Hoc mihi cum tuo fratre convenit. Scio enim esse quosdam, qui quavis lingua philosophari possint; Gerendus est mos, modo recte sentiat.
Quae sequuntur igitur? Non modo carum sibi quemque, verum etiam vehementer carum esse? Quis istud possit, inquit, negare? Duo Reges: constructio interrete. Nunc haec primum fortasse audientis servire debemus. Id est enim, de quo quaerimus. Quid igitur dubitamus in tota eius natura quaerere quid sit effectum? His similes sunt omnes, qui virtuti student levantur vitiis, levantur erroribus, nisi forte censes Ti.
Nos commodius agimus. Illa tamen simplicia, vestra versuta. Tu autem negas fortem esse quemquam posse, qui dolorem malum putet. Semper enim ex eo, quod maximas partes continet latissimeque funditur, tota res appellatur. Stuprata per vim Lucretia a regis filio testata civis se ipsa interemit. Ergo ita: non posse honeste vivi, nisi honeste vivatur? Sed ego in hoc resisto; Potius inflammat, ut coercendi magis quam dedocendi esse videantur.
Septem autem illi non suo, sed populorum suffragio omnium nominati sunt. Recte, inquit, intellegis. An me, inquam, nisi te audire vellem, censes haec dicturum fuisse? Callipho ad virtutem nihil adiunxit nisi voluptatem, Diodorus vacuitatem doloris. Dempta enim aeternitate nihilo beatior Iuppiter quam Epicurus; Aeque enim contingit omnibus fidibus, ut incontentae sint. His enim rebus detractis negat se reperire in asotorum vita quod reprehendat. Memini me adesse P. Eam si varietatem diceres, intellegerem, ut etiam non dicente te intellego; At vero illa, quae Peripatetici, quae
Stoici dicunt, semper tibi in ore sunt in iudiciis, in senatu. Utram tandem linguam nescio?
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Quamquam ab iis philosophiam et omnes ingenuas disciplinas habemus; Occultum facinus esse potuerit, gaudebit;
Habes, inquam, Cato, formam eorum, de quibus loquor, philosophorum. Primum in nostrane potestate est, quid meminerimus? Restincta enim sitis stabilitatem voluptatis habet, inquit, illa autem voluptas ipsius restinctionis in motu est. Atqui, inquam, Cato, si istud optinueris, traducas me ad te totum licebit. Quid, si etiam iucunda memoria est praeteritorum malorum? Multa sunt dicta ab antiquis de contemnendis ac despiciendis rebus humanis; Bonum incolumis acies: misera caecitas. Quasi vero aut concedatur in omnibus stultis aeque magna esse vitia, et eadem inbecillitate et inconstantia L.
Hoc dixerit potius Ennius: Nimium boni est, cui nihil est mali. Omnia contraria, quos etiam insanos esse vultis. Compensabatur, inquit, cum summis doloribus laetitia. Ergo, si semel tristior effectus est, hilara vita amissa est? Sed plane dicit quod intellegit. Ita graviter et severe voluptatem secrevit a bono. Cupiditates non Epicuri divisione finiebat, sed sua satietate.

Ratio enim nostra consentit, pugnat oratio. Nec vero alia sunt quaerenda contra Carneadeam illam sententiam. Ea, quae dialectici nunc tradunt et docent, nonne ab illis instituta sunt aut inventa sunt? Quod dicit Epicurus etiam de voluptate, quae minime sint voluptates, eas obscurari saepe et obrui. At iam decimum annum in spelunca iacet. Nihil enim iam habes, quod ad corpus referas; Et quod est munus, quod opus sapientiae? Eaedem res maneant alio modo.
Ut placet, inquit, etsi enim illud erat aptius, aequum cuique concedere. Scaevola tribunus plebis ferret ad plebem vellentne de ea re quaeri. Fortitudinis quaedam praecepta sunt ac paene leges, quae effeminari virum vetant in dolore. Ergo instituto veterum, quo etiam Stoici utuntur, hinc capiamus exordium. Nec vero intermittunt aut admirationem earum rerum, quae sunt ab antiquis repertae, aut investigationem novarum. Sed in rebus apertissimis nimium longi sumus. Quod cum ille dixisset et satis disputatum videretur, in oppidum ad Pomponium perreximus omnes. Eademne, quae restincta siti? Primum cur ista res digna odio est, nisi quod est turpis?
