Stobaeus ecl. II 102, 4 W. Τοῦ δὲ νόμου ὄντος σπουδαίου, καθάπερ εἴπομεν, ἐπειδὴ λόγος ὀρθός ἐστι προστακτικὸς μὲν ὧν ποιητέον, ἀπαγορευτικὸς δὲ ὧν οὐ ποιητέον, μόνον τὸν σοφὸν εἶναι λέγουσι νόμιμον, πρακτικὸν ὄντα τῶν ὑπὸ τοῦ νόμου προσταττομένων καὶ μόνον ἐξηγητικὸν τούτου, δι’ ὃ καὶ νομικὸν εἶναι· τοὺς δ’ ἠλιθίους ἐναντίως ἔχειν.
