Let Pleasures then be understood to be divided into mental and

bodily: instances of the former being love of honour or of

learning: it being plain that each man takes pleasure in that of

these two objects which he has a tendency to like, his body being

no way affected but rather his intellect. Now men are not called

perfectly self-mastering or wholly destitute of self-control in

respect of pleasures of this class: nor in fact in respect of any

which are not bodily; those for example who love to tell long

stories, and are prosy, and spend their days about mere chance

matters, we call gossips but not wholly destitute of

self-control, nor again those who are pained at the loss of money

or friends.
