普鲁塔克《希腊罗马名人传》· Plutarch's Lives · 领导 · 财富 · 健康 · 投资
The integrity of the two Romans, and their superiority to money, was chiefly remarkable in this; that in office and the administration of public affairs, they kept themselves from the imputation of unjust gain; whereas Agis might justly be offended, if he had only that mean commendation given him, that he took nothing wrongfully from any man, seeing he distributed his own fortunes, which, in ready money only, amounted to the value of six hundred talents, amongst his fellow-citizens. Extortion would have appeared a crime of a strange nature to him, who esteemed it a piece of covetousness to possess, though never so justly gotten, greater riches than his neighbors.

白话
两位罗马人的正直和不贪财尤其显著：他们在任职和公共事务中避免了不正当获利的嫌疑；而阿吉斯如果只得到这样的称赞——不取任何人的不义之财——他可能会觉得受辱，因为他把自己的财产，仅现金就值六百塔兰特，分给了同胞公民。对他而言，勒索会是一种奇怪的罪行，因为他认为，即使合法获得比邻居更多的财富，也是一种贪婪。这说明，真正的慷慨在于分享自己的所有，而不仅仅是不取不义之财。
