Bias autem, cum patriam eius Prienen hostes inuasissent, omnibus, quos modo saeuitia belli incolumes abire passa fuerat, pretiosarum rerum pondere onustis fugientibus interrogatus quid ita nihil ex bonis suis secum ferret 'ego uero' inquit 'bona omnia mea mecum porto': pectore enim illa gestabat, non humeris, nec oculis uisenda, sed aestimanda animo. quae domicilio mentis inclusa nec mortalium nec deorum manibus labefactari queunt, et ut manentibus praesto sunt, ita fugientes non deserunt.
Valerius Maximus. Factorvm et Dictorvm Memorabilivm, Libri Novem. Karl Friedrich Kempf. Leipsig. Teubner. 1888. Keyboarding.
