Neither worse then nor better is a thing made by being praised. I affirm this also of the things which are called beautiful by the vulgar; for example, material things and works of art.

Page 102 - Thou canst pass thy life in an equable flow of happiness, if thou canst go by the right way, and think and act in the right way.
