    没有什么我能拿来与友谊相比;诸神赐予人们之物中没有什么比它更好。人们或是更喜爱金钱,或是更喜爱健康的身躯,或是更喜爱名誉和荣耀,或是更喜爱高兴快乐——但是人的这些想法大错特错,因为它们是不确定的并且来自运气,而非来自智慧。事实上,友谊从智慧、爱、美德与勇气中来;没有勇气友谊就不能存在。如果没有朋友,你就过着暴君的生活;如果你找到了真正的朋友,你的生活就有福了。

    • Nothing I can compare with friendship; nothing that Gods give people is better. People either prefer money, or health body, or fame and glory, or pleasure - but these are too wrong because they are uncertain and come from fortune rather than wisdom. In fact, friendship comes from wisdom, love, beautiful character and courage; friendship isn't able to exist without courage. If you have no friends, you will have a tyrant's life; If you find a real friend, your life will be blessed.
