Things As They Are

Cicero, On Friendship 5.18 (tr. William Armistead Falconer):
I, however, am bound to look at things as they are in the experience of everyday life and not as they are in fancy or in hope.

nos autem ea quae sunt in usu vitaque communi, non ea quae finguntur aut optantur, spectare debemus.
