[140]
Every reproach, I might almost say, should be
avoided, but this above all, men of Athens. Why? Because in every way envy is the mark of a vicious
nature, and the man who is subject to it has no claim whatever to consideration.
Moreover there is no reproach more alien to our city than the appearance of
envy, averse as she is from all that is disgraceful.
