For in the first
place Epicurus banishes us from his presence without
more ado, since he bids all his followers to fly from
learning in the swiftest ship that they can find.1
Nor would Aristippus, who regards the highest good
as consisting in physical pleasure, be likely to exhort
us to the toils entailed by our study. And what
part can Pyrrho have in the work that is before us?
For he will have doubts as to whether there exist
judges to address, accused to defend, or a senate
where he can be called upon to speak his opinion.
