Καὶ οἶμαι αὐτοὺς μὴ παντάπασι ψεύδεσθαι· ἐν τούτοις γὰρ δὴ ἐκεῖνος τὴν εὐδαιμονίαν ὡρίζετο. Εἰώθει γὰρ λέγειν, οὐκ ἄλλως εὐδαίμονά τινα γίνεσθαι ἢ διὰ τῆς τοῦ σώματος εὐπαθείας καὶ τῆς τῶν ἐκτὸς περιουσίας, ὧν ἄνευ μηδὲν τὴν ἀρετὴν ὠφελεῖν. Καὶ τοῦτο δὴ σαφῶς Ἀττικὸς ὁ Πλατωνικός, ἐν οἷς πρὸς Ἀριστοτέλην γράφει, δεδήλωκεν. Τὰ τοίνυν κατ' αὐτοῦ λεγόμενα βεβαιοῦσιν οἱ λόγοι.
