Oswald J. (Oswald Joseph) Reichel translation
Cic. Tusc. iii. 22, 54. Let it be observed that this view of Carneades is specially placed under the head of conviction on probabilities. It is said, he attacked the proposition, videri fore in ægritudine sapientem patria capta. The other statements of Carneades on ethics, such as that in Plut. De Adulat. 16, p. 51, have nothing characteristic about them. ↑
