\nTiranul Dionysios \u00eei d\u0103du s\u0103 aleag\u0103 \u00eentre trei curtezane; el \u00eens\u0103 le lu\u0103 pe toate trei, spun\u00e2nd: \u201eParis a pl\u0103tit scump alegerea uneia din trei\u201c. Dar, dup\u0103 ce le-a dus p\u00e2n\u0103 la poart\u0103, le-a l\u0103sat s\u0103 plece: a\u015fa de mult p\u0103stra m\u0103sura \u015fi \u00een alegere, \u015fi \u00een respingere.<\/p>\n
C\u00e2nd Dionysios l-a scuipat, el nu-\u015fi ar\u0103t\u0103 sup\u0103rarea, \u015fi spuse celui care-l mustra: ..Doar \u015fi pescarii \u00eendur\u0103 s\u0103 fie uda\u0163i de apa m\u0103rii spre a putea prinde pe\u015fti, iar eu s\u0103 nu suport s\u0103 fiu sp\u0103lat de ud\u0103tura scuipatului pentru a c\u0103p\u0103ta o m\u00e2ncare de pe\u015fte ?\u201c.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-o zi, Dionysios voi s\u0103-l sileasc\u0103 s\u0103 enun\u0163e o doctrin\u0103 de filozofie, iar el \u00eei r\u0103spunse: \u201eAr fi ridicol ca tu s\u0103 afli de la mine cum s\u0103 vorbe\u015fti \u015fi totu\u015fi s\u0103 m\u0103 \u00eenve\u0163i pe mine c\u00e2nd s\u0103 vorbesc\u201d.<\/p>\n
Se poveste\u015fte c\u0103 odat\u0103 Dionysios s-a sup\u0103rat \u015fi l-a a\u015fezat la coada mesei, dar Aristip \u00eei spuse: \u201eDesigur, ai voit s\u0103 cinste\u015fti acest loc de la coad\u0103\u201c.<\/p>\n
Cer\u00e2ndu-i odat\u0103 bani lui Dionysios, acesta \u00eei \u00eent\u00e2mpin\u0103 cererea cu cuvintele: \u201eEi, dar spuneai c\u0103 omul \u00een\u0163elept nu se afl\u0103 niciodat\u0103 \u00een nevoie\u201c, la care el r\u0103spunse: \u201eLas\u0103, d\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2i banii, \u015fi vom discuta noi pe urm\u0103\u201d, iar dup\u0103 ce primi banii: \u201eAcum vezi \u2013 \u00eei spuse \u2013 c\u0103 nu sunt \u00een nevoie\u201c.<\/p>\n
\u00cel rug\u0103 odat\u0103 ceva pe Dionysios pentru un prieten \u015fi, neizbutind s\u0103 dob\u00e2ndeasc\u0103 ce dorea, \u00eei c\u0103zu la picioare. Cineva r\u00e2se de el, iar Aristip \u00eei spuse: \u201eNu sunt eu de vin\u0103, ci Dionysios, care are urechile la picioare\u201c.<\/p>\n
R\u0103spunz\u00e2nd unuia care zicea c\u0103 vede mereu filozofi la u\u015file boga\u0163ilor: ..La fel \u2013 \u00eei spuse el \u2013 cum medicii stau pe l\u00e2ng\u0103 bolnavi, dar asta nu \u00eenseamn\u0103 c\u0103 vreunul ar dori s\u0103 fie bolnav, \u00een loc s\u0103 fie medic\u201c.<\/p>\n
S-a \u00eent\u00e2mplat odat\u0103 s\u0103 c\u0103l\u0103toreasc\u0103 pe mare spre Corint \u015fi, fiind surprins de o furtun\u0103, era \u00een mare dezn\u0103dejde. Unul \u00eei spuse: .,Noi, oamenii de r\u00e2nd, ne p\u0103str\u0103m firea; de ce voi, filozofii, v\u0103 pierde\u0163i capul ?\u201d \u201eVie\u0163ile \u00een joc, din aceste dou\u0103 cazuri \u2013 \u00eei r\u0103spunse el \u2013 nu se pot asemui\u201c.<\/p>\n
Unuia care \u00ee\u015fi lua aere de mare \u00eenv\u0103\u0163at, Aristip \u00eei spuse acestea: ..Dup\u0103 cum cei care m\u0103n\u00e2nc\u0103 mai mult \u015fi fac mai multe exerci\u0163ii n-au o s\u0103n\u0103tate mai bun\u0103 dec\u00e2t cei care se restr\u00e2ng la necesar, tot a\u015fa nu cei ce citesc mult, ci cei ce citesc cu folos sunt cei de seam\u0103\u201d.<\/p>\n
Un logograf, care-i c\u00e2\u015ftigase un proces, \u00eel \u00eentreb\u0103: .,La ce \u0163i-a folosit Socrate ?\u201d \u201eLa foarte mult \u2013 fu r\u0103spunsul -, ca cele ce-ai spus despre mine \u00een discursul t\u0103u s\u0103 fie adev\u0103rate\u201c.<\/p>\n
Fiind \u00eentrebat de cineva la ce-i va folosi mai mult fiului s\u0103u dac\u0103 va fi bine educat, el r\u0103spunde: \u201eDac\u0103 nu la altceva, cel pu\u0163in ca atunci c\u00e2nd e la teatru s\u0103 nu stea ca o piatr\u0103 peste alt\u0103 piatr\u0103\u201d.<\/p>\n
Altul \u00eei aduse copilul la \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103tur\u0103, iar c\u00e2nd el \u00eei ceru o plat\u0103 de cinci sute de drahme, tat\u0103l c\u00e2rti: \u201eCu pre\u0163ul acesta pot cump\u0103ra un sclav\u201d. \u201eN-ai dec\u00e2t s\u0103 faci a\u015fa \u015fi vei avea doi sclavi\u201c.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
