Human wisdom III

The people are mistaken: One goes much more easily by the ends, where the end is used as terminal of stop and guide, which by the way of the medium, broad and opened, and according to art that according to nature, but well less noble also, and less of confidence.
The nobility of soul is not so much to draw with mount and to draw before like knowing to line up and circumscribe. It holds for Great Whole what is enough, and shows its height to better like the average things that the eminent ones. It is nothing so beautiful and so legitimate but to make well the man and dument, nor science so difficult that of good and naturally to know to live this life; and of our diseases most wild is to scorn our being...
It is an absolute perfection, and like divine, to know to enjoy honestly its being. We seek other conditions, not to hear the use as of ours, and leave out of us, to know which it made there.
If we go up in vain on stilts, because on stilts still is necessary it to go on our legs...
The most beautiful lives are, with my liking, those which line up with the common and human model, with command, but without miracle nor extravagance.
