Boethius

Quotes

• “Nam in omni adversitate fortunae infelicissimum est genus infortunii fuisse felicem.”

• “Adeo nihil est miserum nisi cum putes, contraque beata sors omnis est aequanimitate tolerantis.”

• “Nam si uti corporum languor ita vitiositas quidam est quasi morbus animorum, cum aegros corpore minime dignos odio sed potius miseratione iudicemus, multo magis non insequendi sed miserandi sunt quorum mentes omni languore atrocior urguet improbitas.”

• “Vis aptam meritis uicem referre: / Dilige iure bonos et miseresce malis.”

• “Sic quae permissis fluitare videtur habenis / Fors patitur frenos ipsaque lege meat.”
