And still you do not wish to do the work of a human being? Why are you not hurrying to do what is in accordance with your nature? “But one must also rest.” I agree, but Nature has set limits to this, too, just as she has set limits to eating and drinking, and in these you go well beyond the limits. In your actions, however, you stay well within the limits of what you are capable of. You do not love yourself, or else you surely would love your nature and what it intends for you.
