"Cum multa sint in philosophia et gravia et utilia, accurate copoioseque a philosophis
disputata, latissime patere videntur ea, quæ de officiis tradita ab illis et præcepta sunt.
Nulla enim vitæ pars, neque publicis, neque privatis ; neque forensibus, neque domes-
ticis in rebus; neque si tecum agas quid, neque si cum altero contrahas, vacare officio
potest in eoque colendo sita vitæ est honestas oinnis, et in negligendo turpitudo.
Atque hæc quidem quæstio communis est omnium philosophorum: quis est enim, qui,
nullis officii præceptis tradendis, philosophum se audeat dicere?"
CICERO.
