More From Diogenes
- "Those who have virtue always in their mouths, and neglect it in practice, are like a harp, which emits a sound pleasing to others, while itself is insensible of the music."

- "Wise kings generally have wise counselors; and he must be a wise man himself who is capable of distinguishing one."
