“The first really dogmatic teacher in Athens was the founder of Stoicism, Zeno. It was religion first, philosophy only second.... He expressed contempt for those who held out pleasures or pains in a future life as a motive for being good.”

Edith Hamilton 1867 – 1963 CE
from The Echo of Greece, 1957
