Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..."

"There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain..."

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

"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.

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."

1914 translation by H. Rackham

"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. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains."

Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..."

"No hay nadie que ame el dolor mismo, que lo busque, lo encuentre y lo quiera, simplemente porque es el dolor."

Lorem Ipsum es simplemente el texto de relleno de las imprentas y archivos de texto. Lorem Ipsum ha sido el texto de relleno estándar de las industrias desde el año 1500, cuando un impresor (N. del T. persona que se dedica a la imprenta) desconocido usó una galería de textos y los mezcló de tal manera que logró hacer un libro de textos especimen. No sólo sobrevivió 500 años, sino que tambien ingresó como texto de relleno en documentos electrónicos, quedando esencialmente igual al original. Fue popularizado en los 60s con la creación de las hojas "Letraset", las cuales contenian pasajes de Lorem Ipsum, y más recientemente con software de autoedición, como por ejemplo Aldus PageMaker, el cual incluye versiones de Lorem Ipsum.

Es un hecho establecido hace demasiado tiempo que un lector se distraerá con el contenido del texto de un sitio mientras que mira su diseño. El punto de usar Lorem Ipsum es que tiene una distribución más o menos normal de las letras, al contrario de usar textos como por ejemplo "Contenido aquí, contenido aquí". Estos textos hacen parecerlo un español que se puede leer. Muchos paquetes de autoedición y editores de páginas web usan el Lorem Ipsum como su texto por defecto, y al hacer una búsqueda de "Lorem Ipsum" va a dar por resultado muchos sitios web que usan este texto si se encuentran en estado de desarrollo. Muchas versiones han evolucionado a través de los años, algunas veces por accidente, otras veces a propósito (por ejemplo insertándole humor y cosas por el estilo).

Al contrario del pensamiento popular, el texto de Lorem Ipsum no es simplemente texto aleatorio. Tiene sus raices en una pieza cl´sica de la literatura del Latin, que data del año 45 antes de Cristo, haciendo que este adquiera mas de 2000 años de antiguedad. Richard McClintock, un profesor de Latin de la Universidad de Hampden-Sydney en Virginia, encontró una de las palabras más oscuras de la lengua del latín, "consecteur", en un pasaje de Lorem Ipsum, y al seguir leyendo distintos textos del latín, descubrió la fuente indudable. Lorem Ipsum viene de las secciones 1.10.32 y 1.10.33 de "de Finnibus Bonorum et Malorum" (Los Extremos del Bien y El Mal) por Cicero, escrito en el año 45 antes de Cristo. Este libro es un tratado de teoría de éticas, muy popular durante el Renacimiento. La primera linea del Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", viene de una linea en la sección 1.10.32

El trozo de texto estándar de Lorem Ipsum usado desde el año 1500 es reproducido debajo para aquellos interesados. Las secciones 1.10.32 y 1.10.33 de "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" por Cicero son también reproducidas en su forma original exacta, acompañadas por versiones en Inglés de la traducción realizada en 1914 por H. Rackham.

Hay muchas variaciones de los pasajes de Lorem Ipsum disponibles, pero la mayoría sufrió alteraciones en alguna manera, ya sea porque se le agregó humor, o palabras aleatorias que no parecen ni un poco creíbles. Si vas a utilizar un pasaje de Lorem Ipsum, necesitás estar seguro de que no hay nada avergonzante escondido en el medio del texto. Todos los generadores de Lorem Ipsum que se encuentran en Internet tienden a repetir trozos predefinidos cuando sea necesario, haciendo a este el único generador verdadero (válido) en la Internet. Usa un diccionario de mas de 200 palabras provenientes del latín, combinadas con estructuras muy útiles de sentencias, para generar texto de Lorem Ipsum que parezca razonable. Este Lorem Ipsum generado siempre estará libre de repeticiones, humor agregado o palabras no características del lenguaje, etc.

Lorem Ipsum è un testo segnaposto utilizzato nel settore della tipografia e della stampa. Lorem Ipsum è considerato il testo segnaposto standard sin dal sedicesimo secolo, quando un anonimo tipografo prese una cassetta di caratteri e li assemblò per preparare un testo campione. È sopravvissuto non solo a più di cinque secoli, ma anche al passaggio alla videoimpaginazione, pervenendoci sostanzialmente inalterato. Fu reso popolare, negli anni ’60, con la diffusione dei fogli di caratteri trasferibili “Letraset”, che contenevano passaggi del Lorem Ipsum, e più recentemente da software di impaginazione come Aldus PageMaker, che includeva versioni del Lorem Ipsum.

È universalmente riconosciuto che un lettore che osserva il layout di una pagina viene distratto dal contenuto testuale se questo è leggibile. Lo scopo dell’utilizzo del Lorem Ipsum è che offre una normale distribuzione delle lettere (al contrario di quanto avviene se si utilizzano brevi frasi ripetute, ad esempio “testo qui”), apparendo come un normale blocco di testo leggibile. Molti software di impaginazione e di web design utilizzano Lorem Ipsum come testo modello. Molte

Page 9: Elecciones Para Prevenir La Derrota y Ser Como Los Mejores

versioni del testo sono state prodotte negli anni, a volte casualmente, a volte di proposito (ad esempio inserendo passaggi ironici).

Al contrario di quanto si pensi, Lorem Ipsum non è semplicemente una sequenza casuale di caratteri. Risale ad un classico della letteratura latina del 45 AC, cosa che lo rende vecchio di 2000 anni. Richard McClintock, professore di latino al Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, ha ricercato una delle più oscure parole latine, consectetur, da un passaggio del Lorem Ipsum e ha scoperto tra i vari testi in cui è citata, la fonte da cui è tratto il testo, le sezioni 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 del "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" di Cicerone. Questo testo è un trattato su teorie di etica, molto popolare nel Rinascimento. La prima riga del Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", è tratta da un passaggio della sezione 1.10.32.

Il brano standard del Lorem Ipsum usato sin dal sedicesimo secolo è riprodotto qui di seguito per coloro che fossero interessati. Anche le sezioni 1.10.32 e 1.10.33 del "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" di Cicerone sono riprodotte nella loro forma originale, accompagnate dalla traduzione inglese del 1914 di H. Rackham.

Esistono innumerevoli variazioni dei passaggi del Lorem Ipsum, ma la maggior parte hanno subito delle variazioni del tempo, a causa dell’inserimento di passaggi ironici, o di sequenze casuali di caratteri palesemente poco verosimili. Se si decide di utilizzare un passaggio del Lorem Ipsum, è bene essere certi che non contenga nulla di imbarazzante. In genere, i generatori di testo segnaposto disponibili su internet tendono a ripetere paragrafi predefiniti, rendendo questo il primo vero generatore automatico su intenet. Infatti utilizza un dizionario di oltre 200 vocaboli latini, combinati con un insieme di modelli di strutture di periodi, per generare passaggi di testo verosimili. Il testo così generato è sempre privo di ripetizioni, parole imbarazzanti o fuori luogo ecc.
