Κριτόλαος δέ τις τῶν κεχορευκότων Μούσαις, τῆς Περιπατητικῆς ἐραστὴς φιλοσοφίας, τῷ περὶ τῆς ἀιδιότητος κόσμου δόγματι συνειπὼν ἐχρήσατο τοιαύταις πίστεσιν· εἰ γέγονεν ὁ κόσμος, ἀνάγκη καὶ τὴν γῆν γεγονέναι· εἰ δὲ ἡ γῆ γενητή, πάντως καὶ τὸ ἀνθρώπων γένος· ἄνθρωπος δὲ ἀγένητον, ἐξ ἀιδίου τοῦ γένους ὑφεστῶτος, ὥσπερ ἐπιδειχθήσεται·
