Οἱ δὲ στωϊκοὶ ἐναντία τούτοις ἄντικρυς ἐψηφίσαντο. Τὸ γὰρ ἀκολούθως τῇ φύσει ζῆν ὡρίσαντο τέλος καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν ἔφασαν μηδὲν ὑπὸ τοῦ σώματος ἢ ὠφελεῖσθαι ἢ βλάπτεσθαι· οὔτε γὰρ εἰς ἀρετὴν αὐτὴν ἡ ὑγίεια μὴ βουλομένην βιάζεται, οὔτε εἰς κακίαν παρὰ γνώμην ἡ νόσος καθέλκει· ἀδιάφορα γὰρ ταῦτα ἔλεγον εἶναι. Ἐκεῖνο δέ γε αὐτῶν κομιδῇ τολμηρόν· ἀνθρώπου γάρ τοι καὶ θεοῦ τὴν αὐτὴν ἔλεγον ἀρετήν.
