For, as we said at the 1718 IV, 2 | spends much and displays a tasteless showiness; e.g. he gives 1719 II, 7 | small ones), an excess, tastelessness and vulgarity, and a deficiency, 1720 II, 1 | would have been no need of a teacher, but all men would have 1721 VII, 9 | persuaded by Odysseus to tell the lie. For not every one 1722 IV, 1 | they sack cities and spoil temples, we do not call mean but 1723 VII, 8 | themselves, those who become temporarily beside themselves are better 1724 IV, 1 | in respect of which the temrate man is praised, nor of judicial 1725 I, 13 | and the other having a tendency to obey as one does one' 1726 V, 5 | to them; the bed, C, is a tenth of B; it is plain, then, 1727 VIII, 12| akin in character; and the test of time has been applied 1728 VIII, 4 | a man who has long been tested by oneself; and it is among 1729 VII, 14 | of natural science also testify, saying that sight and hearing 1730 IV, 3 | then are found out; and tetadorn themselves with clothing 1731 VI, 7 | is why we say Anaxagoras, Thales, and men like them have 1732 VI, 2 | God,~To make undone things thathave once been done.)~ ~The work 1733 VII, 4 | there is an excess even in them-if like Niobe one were to fight 1734 III, 11 | most-but rather dislikes them-nor in general the things that 1735 VII, 7 | him if he has resisted, as Theodectes’ Philoctetes does when bitten 1736 IX, 9 | company of the good, as Theognis has said before us.~If we 1737 II, 2 | inquiry does not aim at theoretical knowledge like the others ( 1738 | thereby 1739 V, 8 | if A takes B’s hand and therewith strikes C, B does not act 1740 I, 5 | unless he were maintaining a thesis at all costs. But enough 1741 IV, 3 | this, it seems, is why Thetis did not mention to Zeus 1742 VII, 4 | things painful, of hunger and thirst and heat and cold and all 1743 VII, 14 | their way to manufacture thirsts somehow for themselves. 1744 | thou 1745 VII, 2 | would be strange-so Socrates thought-if when knowledge was in a 1746 III, 1 | Those things, then, are thought-involuntary, which take place under 1747 VII, 5 | those who by nature are thoughtless and live by their senses 1748 V, 8 | thought likely (e.g. he threw not with intent to wound 1749 III, 10 | gourmand prayed that his throat might become longer than 1750 VII, 7 | just as people who first tickle others are not tickled themselves), 1751 VII, 7 | first tickle others are not tickled themselves), if they have 1752 VIII, 10| like that would be a mere titular king. Now tyranny is the 1753 V, 5 | of justice does hold men together-reciprocity in accordance with a proportion 1754 VIII, 8 | they delight in honour as a token of favour to come); while 1755 IV, 2 | nor in a temple and in a tomb.

On this very 1763 IV, 1 | e.g. those who ply sordid trades, pimps and all such people, 1764 I, 11 | deeds are presupposed in a tragedy or done on the stage), this 1765 VII, 7 | of softness; such a man trails his cloak to avoid the pain 1766 II, 1 | not even if one tries to train it by throwing it up ten 1767 II, 6 | does not follow that the trainer will order six pounds; for 1768 VII, 12 | practical wisdom pursues tranquil freedom from that kind), 1769 IX, 1 | the friendships also are transient. But the love of characters, 1770 VIII, 10| the smallest and easiest transitions.~One may find resemblances 1771 VII, 14 | animal nature is always in travail, as the students of natural 1772 VIII, 1 | fellowmen. We may even in our travels how near and dear every 1773 III, 3 | events, like the finding of treasure. But we do not deliberate 1774 V, 11 | on the ground that he is treating the state unjustly.~Further ( 1775 III, 8 | those who draw them up with trenches or something of the sort 1776 IV, 2 | beauty of the result for a trifle, and whatever he is doing 1777 IX, 8 | and noble action to many trivial ones. Now those who die 1778 I, 9 | is told of Priam in the Trojan Cycle; and one who has experienced 1779 III, 8 | Hector one day "mid the Trojans shall utter his vaulting~ 1780 IX, 5 | anything with them nor take trouble for them. And so one might 1781 VI, 2 | one chooses to have sacked Troy; for no one deliberates 1782 VIII, 3 | been found lovable and been trusted by each. Those who quickly 1783 VI, 2 | which control action and truth-sensation, reason, desire.~Of these 1784 II, 7 | and the mean may be called truthfulness, while the pretence which 1785 VI, 12 | the sake of knowing moral truths but for the sake of becoming 1786 VIII, 1 | tones comes the fairest tune" and "all things are produced 1787 IX, 9 | musical man enjoys beautiful tunes but is pained at bad ones. 1788 I, 4 | course from the judges to the turning-point and the way back. For, while 1789 III, 12 | to the direction of his tutor, so the appetitive element 1790 IX, 8 | one of mild enjoyment, a twelvemonth of noble life to many years 1791 I, 13 | element also appears to be two-fold.

Therefore while in tyrannies friendship and justice hardly 1796 V, 6 | things are not enough become tyrants.~The justice of a master 1797 VIII, 10| deviation from monarchy is tyrany; for both are forms of one-man 1798 IV, 7 | that lead to money, is an uglier character (it is not the 1799 III, 8 | fight like armed men against unarmed or like trained athletes 1800 IX, 11 | Conversely, it is fitting to go unasked and readily to the aid of 1801 IV, 3 | position and good fortune, but unassuming towards those of the middle 1802 IV, 5 | if it is complete becomes unbearable. Now hot-tempered people 1803 VII, 8 | different in kind; vice is unconscious of itself, incontinence 1804 VI, 11 | we ought to attend to the undemonstrated sayings and opinions of 1805 II, 2 | by taking much food and undergoing much exertion, and it is 1806 V, 9 | because it is not hard to understand the matters dealt with by 1807 IV, 7 | boastful. But those who use understatement with moderation and understate 1808 II, 7 | boaster, and that which understates is mock modesty and the 1809 I, 5 | life of money-making is one undertaken under compulsion, and wealth 1810 II, 7 | indignation is pained at undeserved good fortune, the envious 1811 IV, 8 | educated man from that of an uneducated. One may see this even from 1812 V, 4 | and the action have been unequally distributed; but the judge 1813 I, 11 | happiness at all seems a very unfriendly doctrine, and one opposed 1814 VI, 3 | things that are eternal are ungenerated and imperishable.

In fact this is the reason 1823 III, 3 | e.g. about the material universe or the incommensurability 1824 | unlike 1825 II, 6 | belongs to the class of the unlimited, as the Pythagoreans conjectured, 1826 VII, 6 | appetites for excess, i.e. for unnecessary objects.
