3 1 | work with my own~hands, and not to meddle with other people'
4 1 | other people's affairs, and not to be~ready to listen to
5 1 | slander.~ From Diognetus, not to busy myself about trifling
6 1 | about trifling things, and not to~give credit to what was
7 1 | daemons and such things; and~not to breed quails for fighting,
8 1 | and from him I learned not to be led~astray to sophistic
9 1 | poetry, and fine writing; and not to walk about in the~house
10 1 | and to read carefully, and not to be satisfied with a~superficial
11 1 | to look to nothing else, not even for a moment, except~
12 1 | resolute and yielding, and not peevish in giving his instruction;~
13 1 | from fault-finding, and~not in a reproachful way to
14 1 | about the thing itself, not about the word, or by some
15 1 | Alexander the Platonic, not frequently nor without necessity

22 1 | he had them~not, he did not want them. No one could
23 1 | philosophers, and he did not~reproach those who pretended
24 1 | care~of his body's health, not as one who was greatly attached
25 1 | doing so. Further, he was not fond of~change nor unsteady,
26 1 | occupations. His secrets were not but very few and very rare,
27 1 | to what ought to be done, not to the reputation which~
28 1 | by a man's acts. He did not take the bath at unseasonable~
29 1 | unseasonable~hours; he was not fond of building houses,

31 1 | thankful to the gods that I was not longer~brought up with my
32 1 | my youth, and that I did not make proof of my virility~
33 1 | affection;~that my children have not been stupid nor deformed
34 1 | deformed in body; that I did~not make more proficiency in
35 1 | my own fault, and through not observing the admonitions~
36 1 | was never told that I had~not the means of doing it; and
37 1 | inclination to philosophy, I did~not fall into the hands of any

73 3 | should hold on to the~opinion not of all, but of those only

76 3 | such men, since they are not even satisfied with themselves.~
77 3 | with themselves.~ Labour not unwillingly, nor without

87 3 | and partner, one who knows not however~what is according
88 3 | in thy power.~ They know not how many things are signified
89 3 | to be done; for~this is not effected by the eyes, but
90 3 | belongs also to those who do not~believe in the gods, and
91 3 | which is spun for him; and not to defile the divinity which~
92 4 | further~that the mind mingles not with the breath, whether
93 4 | thy own, and above all do not distract or strain thyself,

95 4 | us what to do, and what not to do; if this~is so, there
96 4 | the same; and~altogether not a thing of which any man
97 4 | should be ashamed, for it is~not contrary to the nature of
98 4 | a reasonable animal, and not contrary to~the reason of
99 4 | necessity; and if a man will not have it so, he will~not
100 4 | not have it so, he will~not allow the fig-tree to have
101 4 | he will be dead; and~soon not even your names will be
102 4 | taken away.~ That which does not make a man worse than he
103 4 | worse than he was, also does not make~his life worse, nor
104 4 | wilt find it to be so. I do not say~only with respect to
105 4 | this in every action.~ Do not have such an opinion of
106 4 | advantage, and the like,~not because it appears pleasant
107 4 | I have.- Why then dost not thou use it? For if~this

110 4 | or as Agathon says, look not round at~the depraved morals

117 4 | worse than it was, if it is not~praised? Or gold, ivory,
118 4 | continuing to~exist. But we must not only think of the number
119 4 | of~form, the formal.~ Do not be whirled about, but in
120 4 | city of Cecrops; and wilt not~thou say, Dear city of Zeus?~
121 4 | But consider if it would not be better to say,~Do what
122 4 | requires. For this brings not~only the tranquility which
123 4 | Now a~man should take away not only unnecessary acts, but
124 4 | thus superfluous acts will not follow after.~ Try how the
125 4 | Look also at these. Do not disturb~thyself. Make thyself
126 4 | to the universe who does not know what is in it,~no less
127 4 | is he a stranger who does not know what is going on in
128 4 | need of~another, and has not from himself all things
129 4 | half naked: Bread I have not, he says, and I~abide by
130 4 | abide by reason.- And I do not get the means of living
131 4 | proportion. For thus thou wilt not be dissatisfied, if thou
132 4 | wilt soon die, and thou art not yet simple, not free from~
133 4 | thou art not yet simple, not free from~perturbations,
134 4 | What is evil to thee does not subsist in the ruling principle
135 4 | evils. Let this power~then not form such opinions, and
136 4 | before; for this series is not like a mere~enumeration
137 4 | and consider that we ought not to act and speak as if we~
138 4 | speak; and that we~ought not, like children who learn
139 4 | to-morrow, thou wouldst not care much whether it was~
140 4 | this has happened to me.- Not so, but happy am~I, though
141 4 | man; but every man~would not have continued free from
142 4 | man's misfortune, which is not a~deviation from man's nature?
143 4 | man's nature, when it is not contrary to the will of~
144 4 | to apply this principle: not that this is a misfortune,
145 4 | is laboriously passed. Do not then~consider life a thing
146 5 | to take thy pleasure, and not at all~for action or exertion?
147 5 | action or exertion? Dost thou not see the little plants, the~
148 5 | human being, and dost thou not make haste to do~that which
149 5 | sufficient; yet in thy acts~it is not so, but thou stoppest short
150 5 | canst do. So thou~lovest not thyself, for if thou didst,
151 5 | be fit~for thee; and be not diverted by the blame which

168 5 | dissatisfied, if thou dost~not succeed in doing everything
169 5 | which thou returnest; and do not return to philosophy~as

367 8 | to please a man who does not please~himself? Does a man
368 8 | be my harm, which God has not willed in order that my~
369 8 | that my~unhappiness may not depend on another.~ The
370 8 | it~is diffused, yet it is not effused. For this diffusion
371 8 | light remains fixed and does not glide or fall off. Such
372 8 | illumination, if it does not~admit it.~ He who fears
373 8 | living being and thou wilt~not cease to live.~ Men exist
374 8 | inquiry, moves straight onward not the less, and to its object.~
375 9 | the neglect~of which he is not able now to distinguish
376 9 | who pursues pleasure will not abstain~from injustice,
377 9 | equally affected- for it~would not have made both, unless it
378 9 | employs equally, whoever is not equally affected is~manifestly
379 9 | abide with vice, and has not experience yet induced thee
380 9 | far as they are men.~ Do not despise death, but be well
381 9 | that thy~departure will be not from men who have the same
382 9 | often acts unjustly who does not do a certain thing; not
383 9 | not do a certain thing; not only~he who does a certain
384 9 | Among the animals which have not reason one life is distributed;
385 9 | property of flowing together is not seen. But~still though men
386 9 | wrong; but if~thou canst not, remember that indulgence
387 9 | who hinders~thee?~ Labour not as one who is wretched,
388 9 | all trouble, for it was not outside, but within and
389 9 | them? The ruling faculty.~ Not in passivity, but in activity
390 9 | virtue and his vice lie not in~passivity, but in activity.~
391 9 | asunder thy life, and does not allow it to be one, and~
392 9 | infinite troubles through not being contented with~thy

395 9 | work of philosophy. Draw me not aside~to indolence and pride.~
396 9 | nations, and how many know not even thy~name, and how many
397 9 | own. But perhaps he has~not done wrong.~ Either all
398 9 | body, and the part ought not to find fault with~what
399 9 | have power, why~dost thou not pray for them to give thee
400 9 | give thee the faculty of not fearing~any of the things
401 9 | which thou fearest, or of not desiring any of the~things
402 9 | which thou desirest, or not being pained at anything,
403 9 | any of these things should not happen or happen? for~certainly
404 9 | power. Well, then, is it not better to use what is in
405 9 | slavish and abject way what is not~in thy power? And who has
406 9 | told thee that the gods do not aid us even~in the things
407 9 | thou pray thus: How shall I not desire to~lie with her?
408 9 | Another prays: How shall I not desire to be released? Another
409 9 | Another thus:~How shall I not lose my little son? Thou
410 9 | Thou thus: How shall I not be~afraid to lose him? In
411 9 | sickness my conversation was not about my~bodily sufferings,
412 9 | that shameless men should not be in~the world? It is not
413 9 | not be in~the world? It is not possible. Do not, then,
414 9 | It is not possible. Do not, then, require what is~impossible.
415 9 | such kind of men should~not exist, thou wilt become
416 9 | strange, if the man who has not~been instructed does the
417 9 | Consider whether~thou shouldst not rather blame thyself, because
418 9 | thyself, because thou didst not~expect such a man to err
419 9 | thy kindness thou didst not~confer it absolutely, nor
420 9 | man a service? Art thou not content that thou hast done~
421 10| art a living being, shall not be made worse by it.~ And
422 10| a rational animal, shall not be made~worse by it. But
423 10| bear it, or as thou art not formed by nature to~bear
424 10| by nature to bear it, do not complain, but bear it as
425 10| in such wise as thou~art not formed by nature to bear
426 10| by nature to bear it, do not complain, for it will~perish
427 10| his error.~But if thou art not able, blame thyself, or
428 10| blame thyself, or blame not even thyself.~ Whatever
429 10| contains nothing which is not for its advantage; and all~
430 10| the parts, the~whole would not continue to exist in a good
431 10| eternal changes. And do not imagine~that the solid and
432 10| the accretion, changes, not~that which thy mother brought
433 10| take care that thou dost not~change these names; and
434 10| fallest out of them and dost not maintain thy hold,~go courageously
435 10| depart at once from life, not in passion, but with simplicity
436 10| gods, and that they wish not to be flattered, but wish~
437 10| without showing~it, but yet not concealed. For when wilt
438 10| has taken Sarmatians. Are not~these robbers, if thou examinest
439 10| turning back: but if thou dost not see clear, stop~and take
440 10| no difference.~ Thou hast not forgotten, I suppose, that
441 10| at board, and thou hast not forgotten what they do,
442 10| steal and how~they rob, not with hands and feet, but
443 10| thou~wilt. And he says this not proudly, but obediently
444 10| love as thou lovest. And is not this too said, that~"this
445 10| things~downwards and upwards, not with the eyes, but still
446 10| existence? And why art thou not content to pass through
447 10| thrown~into it.~ Let it not be in any man's power to
448 10| truly of thee that thou~art not simple or that thou are
449 10| simple or that thou are not good; but let him be a liar~
450 10| thee to live,~if thou art not such.~ What is that which
451 10| it or to say it, and do not make~excuses that thou art
452 10| art hindered. Thou wilt not cease to lament till thy~
453 10| power everywhere. Now, it is not given to a~cylinder to move
454 10| the reason itself, they do not crush nor do any harm~of
455 10| really a citizen, which does not harm the~state; nor yet
456 10| harm the state, which does not harm law~(order); and of
457 10| which are called misfortunes not one~harms law. What then
458 10| harms law. What then does not harm law does not harm either
459 10| then does not harm law does not harm either state or~citizen.~
460 10| see all visible things and not to say, I~wish for green
461 10| fortunate that there shall not be by him when~he is dying
462 10| and wise man, will there not be at last some one to~say
463 10| to a longer stay~here? Do not however for this reason
464 10| mild, and on the other hand not as if thou wast torn away;
465 10| separated as from kinsmen, not~however dragged resisting,
466 11| limit of life may be fixed. Not as in a dance and in a~play
467 11| then right~reason differs not at all from the reason of
468 11| from a man's own judgement, not from mere obstinacy, as
469 11| on the stage, you should not be troubled with that which~
470 11| And again-~ ~ We must not chale and fret at that which
471 11| it appear that there is not another condition of life~
472 11| away from~him, and he does not know that he has at the
473 11| have one life with it, is not like that which after being
474 11| the tree, but that it has~not the same mind with it.~
475 11| according to right reason, will not be able to turn thee aside
476 11| equally in~both matters, not only in the matter of steady
477 11| foundation: for justice will not be observed, if we~either
478 11| changeable.~ If the things do not come to thee, the pursuits
479 11| remain quiet, and~thou wilt not be seen either pursuing
480 11| look to this, that I be not discovered doing or saying~
481 11| show even him his mistake, not reproachfully, nor yet as
482 11| smell whether he choose or not. But the affectation of
483 11| and if it remembers that not one of them produces in
484 11| ourselves, it being in our~power not to write them, and it being
485 11| this: If all things are not mere atoms, it is~nature
486 11| rightly what they do, we ought not to be~displeased; but if
487 11| displeased; but if they do not right, it is plain that
488 11| consider that thou dost not even understand whether
489 11| whether men are~doing wrong or not, for many things are done
490 11| dead.~ Seventh, that it is not men's acts which disturb
491 11| invincible, if it be~genuine, and not an affected smile and acting
492 11| to do thee harm, saying, Not so, my child: we are~constituted
493 11| else: I shall certainly not be~injured, but thou art
494 11| so, and that even~bees do not do as he does, nor any animals
495 11| rancour in thy soul; and not as if thou wert lecturing
496 11| to be moved by~passion is not manly, but that mildness
497 11| nerves and~courage, and not the man who is subject to
498 11| this- that to expect bad men not to do~wrong is madness,
499 11| others, and to expect them not to~do thee any wrong, is
500 11| occasion~thus: this thought is not necessary: this tends to
