Praeterea tria genera sunt vitae, inter quae quod sit optimum quaeri solet. Unum voluptati vacat, alterum contemplatione tertium actioni. Primum deposita contentione depositoque odio quod implacabile diversa sequentibus indiximus, videamus, ut haec omnia ad idem sub alio atque alio titulo perveniant. Nec ille, qui voluptatem probat, sine contemplatione est, nec ille, qui contemplationi inservit, sine voluptate est, nec ille, cuius vita actionibus destinata est, sine contemplatione est.
