Σκόπας δὲ ὁ Θετταλὸς αἰτουμένου τινὸς τῶν φίλων
[p. 356]
παρ᾽ αὐτοῦ τι τοιοῦτον, ὃ μὴ σφόδρα ἦν χρήσιμον
ἐκείνῳ, καὶ λέγοντος, ὡς οὐδὲν αἰτεῖ τῶν ἀναγκαίων καὶ χρησίμων ‘καὶ μὴν ἐγὼ τούτοις’ εἶπεν, ‘εὐδαίμων καὶ πλούσιός εἰμι, τοῖς ἀχρήστοις καὶ περιττοῖς.’ οὕτως ὁ τοῦ πλούτου ζῆλος οὐδενὶ πάθει φυσικῷ συνημμένος ἐκ τῆς ὀχλώδους καὶ θυραίου δόξης ἐπεισόδιός ἐστιν.
