  • The art of wealth-getting which consists in household management, on the one hand, has a limit; the unlimited acquisition of wealth is not its business.

  • Happiness itself is sufficient excuse. Beautiful things are right and true; so beautiful actions are those pleasing to the gods. Wise men have an inward sense of what is beautiful, and the highest wisdom is to trust this intuition and be guided by it.
