translation of the original Lore ipsum text by cicero:
But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?"
lore ipsum is by no means meaningles... we only use it to fill because hardly anybody reads latin fluently....
lore ipsum is a passage from Ciceros De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum writen 45BC the text is the translation...
I?m afraid I don?t know what a diatribe is (pardon my english please) realy I made a while ago as a fill image for some work... I only later read the translation and found it veary fitting as it themes one of the most important questions in Dieters life... you are right ther I can?t asume this knolege from "outsiders", so I will rethink the idea and try a new setup next time...
thank you for giving some construktive words opinion has become quite rare latly...
Since "Lorem Ipsum" is simply meaningless text used for publication testing, what are we to make of the relationship between your diatribe and your image? Underlying metaphors (or the lack thereof) aside, it is an interesting composition.
