The standard Lorem Ipsum passage, used since the
1500s
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do
eiusmod tempor incididunt ut
labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad
minim veniam, quis nostrud
exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip
ex ea commodo
consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in
voluptate velit
esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur
sint occaecat
cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia
deserunt mollit
anim id est laborum."
Section 1.10.32 of
"de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero in 45
BC
"Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste
natus error sit voluptatem
accusantium doloremque laudantium, totam
rem aperiam, eaque ipsa quae
ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi
architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt
explicabo. Nemo enim ipsam
voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut
odit aut fugit, sed quia
consequuntur magni dolores eos qui ratione
voluptatem sequi
nesciunt. Neque porro quisquam est, qui dolorem ipsum
quia dolor sit
amet, consectetur, adipisci velit, sed quia non numquam
eius modi
tempora incidunt ut labore et dolore magnam aliquam
quaerat
voluptatem. Ut enim ad minima veniam, quis nostrum
exercitationem ullam
corporis suscipit laboriosam, nisi ut aliquid
ex ea commodi
consequatur? Quis autem vel eum iure reprehenderit qui
in ea voluptate
velit esse quam nihil molestiae consequatur, vel
illum qui dolorem eum
fugiat quo voluptas nulla pariatur?
"
1914 translation by H.
Rackham
"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?"
Section
1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum", written by Cicero
in 45 BC
"At vero eos et accusamus et
iusto odio dignissimos ducimus qui
blanditiis praesentium voluptatum
deleniti atque corrupti quos dolores
et quas molestias excepturi
sint occaecati cupiditate non provident,
similique sunt in culpa qui
officia deserunt mollitia animi, id est
laborum et dolorum fuga. Et
harum quidem rerum facilis est et expedita
distinctio. Nam libero
tempore, cum soluta nobis est eligendi optio
cumque nihil impedit
quo minus id quod maxime placeat facere possimus,
omnis voluptas
assumenda est, omnis dolor repellendus. Temporibus autem
quibusdam
et aut officiis debitis aut rerum necessitatibus saepe
eveniet ut et
voluptates repudiandae sint et molestiae non recusandae.
Itaque
earum rerum hic tenetur a sapiente delectus, ut aut
reiciendis
voluptatibus maiores alias consequatur aut perferendis
doloribus
asperiores repellat."
