Aren’t the best things in life free to all? ‎The sun shines on everyone. The moon, accompanied by countless stars, leads even the beasts to pasture. ‎What can you think of lovelier than water? But it flows for the whole world. ‎The most delightful and choicest pleasure is that which is hinted at, but never told. ‎Exactly, that’s just it; I don’t want any of the good things of life unless people are envious of them.
