Passage 8.24.13
ὃν δὲ ἤκουσα ἐν Ψωφῖδι ἐπὶ Ἀγλαῷ λόγον ἀνδρὶ Ψωφιδίῳ κατὰ Κροῖσον τὸν Λυδὸν ὄντι ἡλικίαν, ὡς ὁ Ἀγλαὸς τὸν χρόνον τοῦ βίου πάντα γένοιτο εὐδαίμων, οὔ με ἔπειθεν ὁ λόγος. ἀλλὰ ἀνθρώπων μὲν τῶν ἐφʼ ἑαυτοῦ κακὰ ἄν τις ἐλάσσονα ἀναδέξαιτο, καθὰ καὶ ναῦς ἧσσον ἂν χειμασθείη νεὼς ἄλλης·
The story which I heard in Psophis concerning Aglaos, a Psophidian who was contemporary with Croesus the Lydian, that this Aglaos throughout the whole course of his life experienced continuous happiness, did not persuade me. Rather, among men, one might admit that his own troubles are fewer, just as one ship may suffer fewer storms than another.
