Author of quotes: Boethius

... why did they act corruptly, turning away from virtue? From ignorance of the good? But what bessilna blindness of ignorance? Maybe they know what to look for, but also passion irresistible force down them the wrong way? But then again, they are powerless, because they can not resist the Vice. Or knowingly and willingly they avoid good and tend to wrinkle? In this case, they not only have more power, but cease to exist. Because people are rushing away from the total for all purposes, immediately lose their existence.

Concern of all mortals, which embodied their various efforts directed in various ways, but directed to one goal - bliss.
