[194] τὰ γοῦν αἰσχρὰ
παρ’ ἡμῖν ἑτέροις καλά, καὶ τὰ πρέποντα ἀπρεπῆ, καὶ τὰ δίκαια ἄδικα, καὶ ἀνόσια μὲν τὰ ὅσια, νόμιμα δ’ αὖ τὰ παράνομα, ἔτι δὲ ψεκτὰ τὰ ἐπαινετὰ καὶ ὑπόδικα τὰ τιμῆς ἄξια καὶ ὅσα ἄλλα ἐναντία ταῦτα νομίζουσι.

[194] At all events, what are accounted disgraceful actions among us, are by others looked upon as honourable; what we think becoming, others call unseemly; what we pronounce just, others renounce as iniquitous; others think our holy actions impious, our lawful deeds lawless: and further, what we think praiseworthy, they find fault with; what we think worthy of all honour, is, in the eyes of others, deserving of punishment; and, in fact, they think most things to be of a contrary character to what we think.
