[69] καὶ γὰρ οὐδ’, ὥσπερ νομίζουσί τινες, ἀνθρώπους ἀναιροῦσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς, ζῷα λογικὰ ἐκ ψυχῆς καὶ σώματος συνεστῶτα, ἀλλ’ ὅσα οἰκεῖα καὶ φίλα τῇ σαρκὶ ἀποκόπτουσι τῆς διανοίας ἑαυτῶν, p. 367 εὐπρεπὲς εἶναι νομίζοντες τοῖς θεραπευταῖς τοῦ μόνου σοφοῦ γενησομένοις
πάντων ὅσα γένεσιν εἴληχεν ἀλλοτριοῦσθαι καὶ πᾶσιν ὡς ἐχθροῖς καὶ δυσμενεστάτοις προσφέρεσθαι.
