Doing Many Things

Sextus, Sentences 262 (tr. Walter T. Wilson):
If you want to live contentedly, do not do many things; for by doing much you will be doing ill.

μετ᾿ εὐθυμίας εἰ θέλεις ζῆν, μὴ πολλὰ πρᾶττε· πολυπραγμονῶν γὰρ κακοπραγμονῶν ἔσῃ.

si vis cum laetitia animi vivere, noli multa agere; in multis enim actibus †moneris.

<cacoprag>mon eris Lloyd-Jones
