520 _aThe customs of modern people are molded by two kinds of morality: one comes from the pagan antiquity and allows for an active prudence which, turning the vice of ingratitude into virtue of acquisition, once culminated in the great founders of State; the other comes from Christianity, magnifies humility, and alters what remains from ancient morality. In the modern era, a certain learned prudence is then both a testament to the enduring presence of ancient morality and a promise that the emulation of the Ancients could resurrect the prudence of the man of action—a virtue interwoven with vices, and with inextricably intellectual, moral, and political dimensions.
