Quote by Aeschylus

He who goes unenvied shall not be admired.

He who goes unenvied shall not be admired.

Summary

This quote suggests that if someone is not subjected to envy or jealousy, they will not receive admiration or respect from others. It implies that being envied is a crucial aspect of gaining admiration because envy stems from acknowledging someone's achievements or qualities that are seen as desirable. Conversely, someone who leads an unenvied life might go unnoticed or unacknowledged by others, potentially missing out on the admiration and recognition that could come with being valued and esteemed.

Honestly, I cannot understand what people mean when they talk about the freedom of the human will. I have a feeling, for instance, that I will something or other; but what relation this has with freedom I cannot understand at all. I feel that I will to light my pipe and I do it; but how can I connect this up with the idea of freedom? What is behind the act of willing to light the pipe? Another act of willing? Schopenhauer once said: Der Mensch kann was er will; er kann aber nicht wollen was er will (Man can do what he will but he cannot will what he wills).
