Plutarchus de Stoic. repugn. cp. 13 p. 1038f. Ἐπαινεῖν δὲ μὴ πᾶν τὸ πραττόμενον κατ’ ἀρετὴν κελεύων, ἐμφαίνει τινὰ τῶν κατορθωμάτων διαφοράν· λέγει δὲ οὕτως ἐν τῷ περὶ τοῦ Διός· Ἔργων γὰρ κατὰ τὰς ἀρετὰς ὄντων οἰκείων, ἔστι τὰ προενεχθέντα καὶ τούτων· οἷον ἀνδρείως τὸν δάκτυλον ἐκτεῖναι, καὶ ἐγκρατῶς ἀποσχέσθαι δυσθανατώσης γραός, καὶ ἀπροπτώτως ἀκοῦσαι τοῦ τὰ τρία τέσσαρα [μὴ] εἶναι τελέως, τίνα ἐμφαίνει ψυχρίαν ὁ διὰ τῶν τοιούτων ἐπαινεῖν τινας ἐγχειρῶν καὶ ἐγκωμιάζειν;
