It’s pleasing, when over a swollen sea winds are stirring up the waters, to watch from the shore another’s peril: not because his troubles are a cause of delight or joy, but because it’s pleasing to recognise what troubles you are free from yourself. It’s just as pleasing to witness battle being waged across a plain, when you’re out of danger yourself. But nothing is more delightful than to occupy the calm of an ivory tower built on the teachings of wise men; from here you can look down on others as they wonder about seeking some path through life as they strive to be clever, to out-do each other in reputation, battling night and day to get to the top of the pile with their power and wealth. What miserable minds men have! How blind their hearts are! To waste their brief span of life in darkness, in peril! Don’t they see all nature needs is for life to be lived without physical pain, while in mind, freed from cares, enjoys a sense of delight?
