Logic or Ethics Ch Summum bonum

As far as the manufacturers of nonsense, the call them
Platonists, call them Academics, call them Stoics, they
shall be as much in the wrong as he pleases. But
of the others of whom who according to him are all
in the wrong, let any one now judge, whether there be
a single one amongst them that is so compleatly in
the wrong as he is.

Concerning the

only or completely
in the wrong

By no one of them, taking his account of them
is the sovereign good found but where there is some good:
but which not an atom of good is there to be seen where he
has found it.

Be they, all of them, ever so much in the wrong,
no one of them is to such a degree in the wrong as to contradict
himself. But he, no sooner has he come out
with one sentence, than he comes out with another to that
contradicts it that runs counter to it.

Nothing after all does this summum bonum of
his amount to, without a dose of those other things which
he has been d turning up his nose against at, and dragging
through the tunnel. A dose and what dose? This is
more than he so much as pretends to know: it should be a med
one it must be, and this is all he says can find to
say about it, all the description he can give of it.

Have the least valuable of all the other summum bonums
you have always something. Have his summum bonum
you have nothing but inonistieur, and that, according
to him you can not have, unless at the same time you have
more or less of those others.
