1Οὐ ῥᾴδιον ἐντυχεῖν, ὦ ἄνδρες, ἀνθρώπῳ μὴ λοιδοροῦντι τὴν Τύχην καὶ τὴν μὲν ἄδικον, αὑτὸν δὲ ἀτυχῆ καλοῦντι. καλεῖ δὲ αὐτὴν ἄδικον καὶ ἡγεῖται ἀτυχεῖν ὁ μὲν ὤν καλός, ὅτι μὴ καὶ μέγας, ὁ δὲ μέγας,
ὅτι μὴ καὶ καλός, ὅτῳ δὲ ταῦτα ἄμφω, ὅτι μὴ καὶ ἰσχυρός, καὶ ὅτῳ δὲ ἔνι τὰ τρία, διὰ τὸ μὴ καὶ ταχὺς εἶναι αἰτιᾶται τὴν θεόν.
ὅτι μὴ καὶ καλός, ὅτῳ δὲ ταῦτα ἄμφω, ὅτι μὴ καὶ ἰσχυρός, καὶ ὅτῳ δὲ ἔνι τὰ τρία, διὰ τὸ μὴ καὶ ταχὺς εἶναι αἰτιᾶται τὴν θεόν.
