ON FRIENDSHIP.—What a man applies himself to earnestly, that he naturally loves. Do men then apply themselves earnestly to the things which are bad? By no means. Well, do they apply themselves to things which in no way concern themselves? Not to these either. It remains then that they employ themselves earnestly only about things which are good; and if they are earnestly employed about things, they love such things also. Whoever then understands what is good can also know how to love; but he who cannot distinguish good from bad, and things which are neither good nor bad from both, how can he possess the power of loving? To love, then, is only in the power of the wise.

白话
一个人认真投入什么，自然就会爱什么。人会认真投入坏事吗？不会。会投入与自己毫不相干的事吗？也不会。那就只剩一种可能：人只对看起来好的东西认真，而一旦认真投入，就会爱上它。所以，谁能真正理解什么是好，谁才懂得爱；分不清好坏、也分不清中性事物的人，怎么可能有爱的能力？照这个说法，爱只属于有智慧的人。换句话说，爱不是盲目冲动，而是建立在正确判断价值之上的能力；判断错了，爱就会变成占有或执迷。
上下文
爱比克泰德是斯多葛派哲学家，他认为德性即知识，爱也取决于对善的判断。

今日一问
我认真投入并爱上的人和事，是出于对善的判断，还是出于习惯和冲动？
