although this be so, and although I am freed from all\nobligation towards him, from the moment when, by outraging all\nlaws, he rendered it impossible for any man to do him a wrong,\nnevertheless, I think I ought to make the following distinction in\ndealing with him. If my repayment of his benefit will neither\nincrease nor maintain his powers of doing mischief to mankind, and\nis of such a character that I can return it to him without\ndisadvantage to the public, I would return it: for instance, I\nwould save the life of his infant child; for what harm can this\nbenefit do to any of those who suffer from his cruelty? But I would\nnot furnish him with money to pay his bodyguard. If he wishes for\nmarbles, or fine clothes, the trappings of his luxury will harm no\none; but with soldiers and arms I would not furnish him. If he\ndemands, as a great boon, actors and courtesans and such things as\nwill soften his savage nature, I would willingly bestow them upon\nhim. I would not furnish him with triremes and brass-beaked ships\nof war, but I would send him fast sailing and luxuriously-fitted\nvessels, and all the toys of kings who take their pleasure on the\nsea. If his health was altogether despaired of, I would by the same\nact bestow a benefit on all men and return one to him; seeing that\nfor such characters death is the only remedy, and that he who never\nwill return to himself, had best leave himself. However, such\nwickedness as this is uncommon, and is always regarded as a\nportent, as when the earth opens, or when fires break forth from\ncaves under the sea; so let us leave it, and speak of those vices\nwhich we can hate without shuddering at them. As for the ordinary\nbad man, whom I can find in the marketplace of any town, who is\nfeared only by individuals, I would return to him a benefit which I\nhad received from him. It is not right that I should profit by his\nwickedness; let me return what is not mine to its owner. Whether he\nbe good or bad makes no difference; but I would consider the matter\nmost carefully, if I were not returning but bestowing it.\n\u003C/p>","html",[1003,1010,1016,1020,1024,1028,1033,1037,1041,1045,1049,1053,1057,1061],{"topicId":178,"slug":1004,"name":1005,"score":1006,"scoreScale":1007,"pullQuote":1008,"relevanceNote":1009},"virtue-and-the-good-life","Virtue & the Good Life",5,"llm_1_5","It is not right that I should profit by his wickedness; let me return what is not mine to its owner.","The passage centrally argues about what is genuinely good: that virtue (justice, proper gratitude) is what matters, not external goods or consequences.
