ita pulcherrima illa et
maxime naturali carent amicitia per se et propter
se expetita,nec ipsi sibi exemplo sunt, haec vis
amicitiae et qualis et quanta sit. ipse enim se
quisque diligit, non ut aliquam a se ipse mercedem
exigat caritatis suae, sed quod per se quisque sibi
carus est; quod nisi idem in amicitiam transferetur,
verus amicus numquam reperietur: est enim is
qui est tamquam alter idem.
Cicero: De Senectute De Amicitia De Divinatione. With An English Translation. William Armistead Falconer. Cambridge. Harvard University Press; Cambridge, Mass., London, England. 1923.
