Plotinus, Enneads 4.4 (DIORISIS sentence 2860)

grc plotinus enneads

Ἀλλʼ εἰ καὶ τὸ βέλτιστον αὐτὸ ἄλλα δοξάζει Ἢ τοῦ κοινοῦ ἡ ἀπορία καὶ ἡ ἀλλοδοξία ἐκ δὲ τοῦ βελτίστου ὁ λόγος ὁ ὀρθὸς εἰς τὸ κοινὸν δοθεὶς τῶι ἀσθενὴς εἶναι ἐν τῶι μίγματι, οὐ τῆι αὐτοῦ φύσει ἀσθενής, ἀλλʼ οἷον ἐν πολλῶι θορύβωι ἐκκλησίας ὁ ἄριστος τῶν συμβούλων εἰπὼν οὐ κρατεῖ, ἀλλʼ οἱ χείρονες τῶν θορυβούντων καὶ βοώντων, ὁ δὲ κάθηται ἡσυχῆι οὐδὲν δυνηθείς, ἡττηθεὶς δὲ τῶι θορύβωι τῶν χειρόνων.
