Men that love wisdom must be acquainted with very many things indeed. The straight and the crooked path of the fuller's comb is one and the same. Asses would rather have straw than gold. Oxen are happy when they find bitter vetches to eat. The sea is the purest and the impurest water.
Every beast is driven to pasture with blows.
Good and ill are one. The one is made up of all things, and all things issue from the one. Men would not have known the name of justice if these things were not. To God all things are fair and good and right, but men hold some things wrong and some right. The wise is one only.
