没有什么我能拿来与友谊相比；诸神赐予人们之物中没有什么比它更好。人们或是更喜爱金钱，或是更喜爱健康的身躯，或是更喜爱名誉和荣耀，或是更喜爱高兴快乐——但是人的这些想法大错特错，因为它们是不确定的并且来自运气，而非来自智慧。事实上，友谊从智慧、爱、美德与勇气中来；没有勇气友谊就不能存在。如果没有朋友，你就过着暴君的生活；如果你找到了真正的朋友，你的生活就有福了。méi yǒu shén me wǒ néng ná lái yǔ yǒu yì xiāng bǐ； zhū shén cì yǔ rén men zhī wù zhōng méi yǒu shén me bǐ tā gèng hǎo。 rén men huò shì gèng xǐ ài jīn qián， huò shì gèng xǐ ài jiàn kāng de shēn qū， huò shì gèng xǐ ài míng yù hé róng yào， huò shì gèng xǐ ài gāo xìng kuài lè —— dàn shì rén de zhè xiē xiǎng fǎ dà cuò tè cuò， yīn wèi tā men shì bù què dìng de bìng qiě lái zì yùn qì， ér fēi lái zì zhì huì。 shì shí shàng， yǒu yì cóng zhì huì、 ài、 měi dé yǔ yǒng qì zhōng lái； méi yǒu yǒng qì yǒu yì jiù bù néng cún zài。 rú guǒ méi yǒu péng yǒu， nǐ jiù guò zhe bào jūn de shēng huó； rú guǒ nǐ zhǎo dào le zhēn zhèng de péng yǒu， nǐ de shēng huó jiù yǒu fú le。
