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 ra 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? On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain.

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?

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy.
my dear friend, so absorbed in the exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents.
I feel that I never was a greater artist than now. When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary.
So… this is it? Seriously? I expected more. Much more. What a dissapointment.
Oh my god, so minimal it’s almost invisible! Is this some kind of performance art? 😂
I disagree with the previous comment. The minimalist aesthetic is very effective. It’s perfect for showcasing work!
The use of whitespace is masterful. It enhances readability and gives a sense of calm. Very effective.
I think its to simple, but I like it! Its very elegant. Good job!
The PSD file is well-organized, with clearly labeled layers. A good example of efficient design.
LOL! I can’t believe how simple this is. It’s almost offensively simple. But I kinda like it! 😂
This is rubbish! The fonts are awful! And what’s with those margins?! Complete waste of time!
This is boring. Needs more colour! Needs more… everything! It’s like looking at a blank wall!
This is so clean it hurts my eyes! But in a good way! Really nice work.
Seriously? This is what you call a portfolio? I could do better in Microsoft Paint. 🙄
Wow! This is amazing! I love the clean design. So pro! Gonna use this for my next project, thanks!
Meh. Looks kinda basic to me. Nothing special. I’ve seen better.
I’m a total noob at this, but it looks really impressive to me! Thanks for sharing!
The layering system is a bit confusing, but overall, its a decent template. Could use some more customization options tho.
