μέρος μὲν γὰρ τοῦ σπουδαίου ἐστὶν ὠφέλεια, τὸ ἡγεμονικὸν αὐτοῦ ὑπάρχουσα· τὰ δὲ ὅλα οὔτε τὰ αὐτὰ τοῖς μέρεσιν εἶναι λέγουσιν οὐ γάρ ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος χείρ), οὔτε ἕτερα παρὰ τὰ μέρη οὐκ ἄνευ γὰρ τῶν μερῶν ὑφέστηκεν). διόπερ οὐχ ἕτερα τῶν μερῶν τὰ ὅλα λέγουσιν. ὅθεν τὸν σπουδαῖον ὅλον ὄντα ὧς πρὸς τ’ ὁ ἡγεμονικὸν ἑαυτοῦ, ὅπερ ἔφασαν ὠφέλειαν, οὐχ ἕτερον ὠφελείας εἷναι λέγουσιν. ἐντεῦθεν καὶ τριχῶς τὸ ἀγαθόν φασι λέγεσθαι.
