English Translation
Those who are wise enjoy or suffer the extremes of whatever is enjoyable or sufferable. But person attached to mean happiness chose indifferent state of dullness; the former delight in the acutest sufferings or highest enjoyments; they do not like a middle course. They consider the extreme to be happiness, while that which lies between, is held by them to be misery.
