Additional quotes by Plotinus
Los unos están desarmados y los otros, como van armados, vencen. Entonces, Dios no tenía por qué pelear en persona en favor de los no aguerridos, pues la ley manda que hay que salir salvos de las guerras luchando varonilmente, y no rezando. Porque tampoco se recogen cosechas rezando, sino cultivando la tierra, ni se está sano descuidando la salud. Los malos gobiernan por la cobardía de los gobernados, pues eso es lo justo, y no lo contrario.
This is why we must break away towards the High: we dare not keep ourselves
set towards the sensuous principle, following the images of sense, or towards the
merely vegetative, intent upon the gratifications of eating and procreation; our life
must be pointed towards the Intellective, towards the Intellectual-Principle, to-
wards God.
