Cloridrato De Sibutramina Monoidratado

Speech of Pericles to the Athenians on the road to Damascus


" Here in Athens we do it: here our government favors the many instead of few, and why it is called democracy. Here in Athens we do like this: the laws here, ensure equal justice for all in their private disputes, but we never ignore the merits of excellence. When a citizen stands, then it will be in preference to others called to serve the state, but not as an act of privilege as a reward of merit, and poverty is not an impediment.
Here in Athens we do like: the freedom we enjoy extends also to everyday life, we are not suspicious of one another and do not ever annoy our neighbors when our neighbor like to live in his own way. We are free, free to live, just as we like, and yet we are always ready to face any danger. An Athenian citizen does not neglect public affairs when waiting to their private affairs, but also is not concerned with public affairs to work out their private matters.
Here in Athens we do well: we have been taught to respect the judges and we were also taught to respect the laws and to never forget those receiving offense. And we were also taught to observe those unwritten laws, residing in the universal sense of what is right and what is common sense.
Here in Athens we do like a man who does not care about the state we do not consider it harmless, but useless, and although a few are able to create a policy, well, everyone here in Athens we can judge. We do not regard the discussion as an obstacle on the path to democracy. We believe that happiness is the fruit of freedom, but freedom is only the fruit of the value. In short, I proclaim Athens school of Hellas, and that every Athenian growing developing in him a happy versatility, self-confidence and readiness to face any situation. And that's why our city is open to the world and we never expel a foreigner.
Here in Athens we do like. "

Thucydides -" The Peloponnesian War - 461 BC

Since we lack a Pericles, Thucydides is missing, there is no democracy, it lacks almost everything. What we want from life?
Good thing we have left at least Rossi !
