But so that you may understand where all this error originates—those who condemn pleasure and those who praise pain—I will explain the whole matter, including those very principles that were laid down by the inventor of truth and, as it were, the architect of the happy life. For no one, in fact, seeks pleasure—simply because it is pleasure—nor does anyone hate or flee from it; rather, it is because great pains follow those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally. Nor is there anyone who seeks pain itself, simply because it is pain, seeks to acquire it; but because there are times when, through toil and pain, one seeks some great pleasure. For, to put it mildly, who among us would undertake any laborious physical exercise unless it were to yield some benefit? But who would justly reproach the one who seeks to be in that pleasure, from which no trouble results, or the one who flees from pain, from which no pleasure is derived?
