 1    I, pref|            For no one can be made better or more just by these things,
 2    I, pref|  profession is to be thought much better, more useful and glorious,
 3    I, 1   |     discordant citizens, how much better and more rightly shall we
 4    I, 1   |           they are entangled to a better course of life. And if,
 5    I, 5   |          known nothing greater or better, that all things might serve
 6    I, 20  |      shameful cause, yet it seems better to have consecrated Venus
 7    I, 21  |          things sacred? Is it not better to live like cattle, than
 8   II, 4   |        are the things which it is better to offer as a gift to the
 9   II, 5   |        PLANETS ARE GODS.~How much better, therefore, is it, leaving
10   II, 5   |           things, the origin of a better world," who is called God,
11   II, 8   |           the truth may hand down better things to our posterity?
12   II, 9   |           of all the Stoics, says better, who saw "that nature was
13   II, 10  |         things do, which are of a better character. But the night,
14  III, 4   |         That must of necessity be better which is held by great numbers,
15  III, 4   | distinguish the affairs of others better than their own. Since, therefore,
16  III, 7   |           teach what is truer and better. Let us see, therefore,
17  III, 7   |   assistance they give us for the better guidance of life. It is
18  III, 7   |           to select that which is better, it follows that philosophy
19  III, 14  |           is not wisdom, if it is better to live in accordance with
20  III, 15  |     ostentation, that it would be better for them not to have learned
21  III, 16  |      without introducing anything better, was supposed to take away
22  III, 17  |           youth; that in wars the better men were especially overcome
23  III, 19  |           about to bring either a better state than that which exists
24  III, 19  |         in other cities, who were better individually than all the
25  III, 20  |         shall have found anything better to take their place. But
26   IV, 28  |           And therefore Lucretius better explained this name, who
27    V, 1   |        was elegant and fitted for better things. But if this happened
28    V, 18  |       folly. For what ought to be better and dearer to man than innocence?
29    V, 19  |     remains to man a longer and a better life--and this we learn
30    V, 20  |     within their breast. How much better it is rather to cleanse
31   VI, 2   |      whole range of philosophy is better and more profitable than
32   VI, 3   |        may direct him wavering to better things--that is, if he shall
33   VI, 3   |     assumes the appearance of the better,--that is, he gives himself
34   VI, 3   |      earth. The poets perhaps did better, who would have it that
35   VI, 3   |         death. We therefore speak better and more truly, who say
36   VI, 3   |     another? But the one which is better is turned towards the rising
37   VI, 4   |           the present, and chosen better things, will be without
38   VI, 4   |       eternal goods, which is the better order; in the other, first
39   VI, 4   |    consider with himself how much better it is to compensate evils
40   VI, 5   |         therefore speaks somewhat better: "Virtue is the fleeing
41   VI, 6   |        one ignorant how often the better and the juster side has
42   VI, 11  |           day. They therefore act better who bestow their bounty
43   VI, 12  |        choosing that which is the better. For that profusion of men
44   VI, 12  |         on superfluities, turn to better uses. Devote to the ransoming
45   VI, 15  |         fore the Peripatetics act better, who say that all these
46   VI, 15  |           though it were not much better to desire a good than to
47   VI, 20  |          bring up children, it is better to abstain from marriage
48   VI, 21  |          the soul and makes you a better man. And especially this

50   VI, 24  |           this account the Greeks better and more significantly speak
51   VI, 24  |        and confirms his mind to a better course of life: then he
52   VI, 24  |        corrected their error by a better life. And let not any one
53   VI, 24  |          actions. Therefore it is better either to flee from conscience,
54   VI, 25  |       incorporeal being? How much better and more truly does Seneca
55  VII, 2   |       still alive, says: Which is better is known to the immortal
56  VII, 14  |     affairs be remodelled for the better, the proof of which must
