Cicero de finibus III 5, 16. Placet his — — simulatque natum sit animal (hinc enim est ordiendum) ipsum sibi conciliari et commendari ad se conservandum et ad suum statum eaque quae conservantia sunt eius status diligenda: alienari autem ab interitu iisque rebus, quae interitum videantur afferre. Id ita esse sic probant, quod, ante quam voluptas aut dolor attigerit, salutaria appetant parvi aspernenturque contraria: quod non fieret nisi statum suum diligerent, interitum timerent. Fieri autem non posset, ut appeterent aliquid, nisi sensum haberent sui eoque se diligerent. Ex quo intellegi debet, principium ductum esse a se diligendo.
