Claudius Ptolemaeus, Tetrabiblos, ed. Franz Johannes Boll, ed. Emilie Boer, 4.10.16

[16] οὐ γὰρ τὸ αὐτὸ σώματος καὶ ψυχῆς καὶ κτήματος καὶ ἀξιώματος καὶ τῶν συμβαινόντων ἀγαθῶν ἢ κακῶν, ὡς ἐξ
ἀνάγκης ἐν ἅπασι τούτοις εὐτυχεῖν τινα ἢ πάλιν ἀτυχεῖν, ἀλλὰ συμβαίνειν μὲν ἂν ἴσως καὶ τὸ τοιοῦτον ἐπὶ τῶν τέλεον εὐδαιμονιζομένων ἢ ταλανιζομένων καιρῶν, ὅταν ἐν ἁπάσαις ἢ ταῖς πλείσταις ἀφέσεσι συνδράμωσιν ὑπαντήσεις ἀγαθοποιῶν πάντων ἢ πάλιν κακοποιῶν, σπανίως
δὲ διὰ τὸ τῆς ἀνθρωπίνης φύσεως, ἀτελὲς μὲν πρὸς ἑκατέραν τῶν ἀκροτήτων, εὐκατάφορον δὲ πρὸς τὴν ἐκ τῆς ἐναλλαγῆς τῶν ἀγαθῶν καὶ κακῶν συμμετρίαν.
