Sextus adv. math. II 6. Ξενοκράτης δὲ ὁ Πλάτωνος ἀκουστὴς καὶ οἱ ἀπὸ τῆς Στοᾶς φιλόσοφοι ἔλεγον ῥητορικὴν ὑπάρχειν ἐπιστήμην τοῦ εὖ λέγειν, ἄλλως μὲν Ξενοκράτους τὴν ἐπιστήμην λαμβάνοντος － ἄλλως δὲ τῶν Στωϊκῶν, ἀντὶ τοῦ βεβαίας ἔχειν καταλήψεις, ἐν σοφῷ μόνῳ φυομένην. τὸ δὲ λέγειν ἀμφότεροι παραλαμβάνουσιν ὡς διαφέρον τοῦ διαλέγεσθαι, ἐπειδήπερ τὸ μὲν ἐν συντομίᾳ κείμενον κἀν τῷ λαμβάνειν καὶ διδόναι λόγον διαλεκτικῆς ἐστὶν ἔργον, τὸ δὲ λέγειν ἐν μήκει καὶ διεξόδῳ θεωρούμενον ῥητορικῆς ἐτύγχανεν ἴδιον.
