1 1 | Diognetus, not to busy myself about trifling things, and not
2 1 | miracle-workers and jugglers about~incantations and the driving
3 1 | writing; and not to walk about in the~house in my outdoor
4 1 | or joining in an inquiry~about the thing itself, not about
5 1 | about the thing itself, not about the word, or by some other
6 1 | places, and to~employ himself about the same things; and after
7 1 | very rare, and~these only about public matters; and he showed
8 1 | building houses, nor curious about what he~ate, nor about the
9 1 | curious about what he~ate, nor about the texture and colour of
10 1 | colour of his clothes, nor about the~beauty of his slaves.
11 1 | and frequent~impressions about living according to nature,
12 1 | syllogisms, or~occupy myself about the investigation of appearances
13 2 | also avoid being carried about~the other way. For those
14 2 | if they have no concern about human affairs, what is it
15 2 | man have any~apprehension about the change and dissolution
16 3 | of thy life in thoughts about others,~when thou dost not
17 3 | think of those things only about which~if one should suddenly
18 3 | that cares not for thoughts about pleasure or sensual enjoyments
19 3 | man of many~words, or busy about too many things. And further,
20 4 | hast heard and assented~to about pain and pleasure, and be
21 4 | formal.~ Do not be whirled about, but in every movement have
22 4 | for some to die,~grumbling about the present, loving, heaping
23 4 | known~distracting themselves about idle things, neglecting
24 4 | nothing. What then is that about which we ought to employ
25 4 | power of forming opinions about evils. Let this power~then
26 4 | part which forms opinions about these~things be quiet, that
27 4 | art a little soul bearing about a corpse, as Epictetus used~
28 5 | thou must exert thyself about this~also, not neglecting
29 5 | will compel me to this.~ About what am I now employing
30 5 | with such things or plagued about them and~makes himself miserable?
31 5 | injured, why am I troubled about~it? And what is the harm
32 6 | disorder? And why do I care about~anything else than how I
33 6 | sure that thou art employed about things~worth thy pains,
34 6 | and do not perplex thyself about the~length of time in which
35 6 | look at these (the~things about thee) as thou didst look
36 6 | the gods have determined about me and about the things
37 6 | determined about me and about the things which must~happen
38 6 | they have not determined about me~individually, they have
39 6 | have certainly determined about the whole at least,~and
40 6 | them. But if they determine about nothing- which it is wicked
41 6 | however the gods determine about~none of the things which
42 6 | I am able to determine about~myself, and I can inquire
43 6 | myself, and I can inquire about that which is useful; and
44 6 | power to have no opinion about a thing, and not to be~disturbed
45 7 | I can have that~opinion about anything, which I ought
46 7 | burden-carrying,~runnings about of frightened little mice,
47 7 | as the things are worth about which he busies~himself.~
48 7 | power of forming an opinion about these things, will~suffer
49 7 | consider with what~opinion about good or evil he has done
50 7 | remember that Law rules all.~ About death: Whether it is a dispersion,
51 7 | either extinction or change.~ About pain: The pain which is
52 7 | can, give their opinion about it.~ About fame: Look at
53 7 | their opinion about it.~ About fame: Look at the minds
54 7 | things,~ For they care nought about it.~ ~ To the immortal gods
55 7 | That he who is discoursing about men~should look also at
56 7 | justly to those~who are about thee, and to exert thy skill
57 7 | then thou art discontented about any of these things,~say
58 8 | What~opinions has this man about good and bad? For if with
59 8 | takest away thy opinion about that which appears to give~
60 8 | it have its own opinion about itself.~ Hindrance to the
61 8 | have this or that opinion about~thee?~ Take me and cast
62 8 | thee, but thy own judgement about it. And it is in thy~power
63 8 | when it forms a judgement about anything aided by~reason
64 8 | and when it is employed about~inquiry, moves straight
65 9 | then, which does judge about them? The ruling faculty.~
66 9 | and poor spirits~carrying about dead bodies, such is everything;
67 9 | hates thee, or when men say about thee~anything injurious,
68 9 | have this or that~opinion about thee. However thou must
69 9 | thy power, and~do not look about thee to see if any one will
70 9 | leading principles, and about what kind of~things are
71 9 | my conversation was not about my~bodily sufferings, nor,
72 10| pleased with all that is~about thee, and wilt thou convince
73 10| then, and trouble~thyself about nothing else.~ Everything
74 10| it, and exercise thyself about~this part of philosophy.
75 10| any man shall say or think about~him or do against him, he
76 10| No longer talk at all about the kind of man that a good
77 10| loves to make whatever is about to be. I say then to the~
78 10| think anything of this kind about thee; and this is~altogether
79 10| instruments which are attached~about it. For they are like to
80 11| general principles, some about the nature of the universe,~
81 11| the universe,~and others about the proper constitution
82 11| Let then thy~judgement about them be at rest, and they
83 11| produces in us an~opinion about itself, nor comes to us;
84 11| who produce the judgements about~them, and, as we may say,
85 11| through cowardice, or concern about reputation, or some such~
86 11| to dismiss thy judgement about an act as if it were~something
87 11| is not the same opinion about all the things which in
88 11| majority to be good, but only about~some certain things, that
89 11| dispute then, he said, is not about any common matter, but about~
90 11| about any common matter, but about~being mad or not.~ Socrates
91 12| poor flesh which has grown about thee;~for the passive part
