Whereas young people become accomplished in geometry and mathematics, and wise within these limits, prudent young people do not seem to be found.

All men naturally desire knowledge. An indication of this is our esteem for the senses; for apart from their use we esteem them for their own sake, and most of all the sense of sight. Not only with a view to action, but even when no action is contemplated, we prefer sight, generally speaking, to all the other senses.
