- αʹ Cicero, Academica 1.2:
| Si vero Academiam veterem persequamur quam nos ut scis probamus quam erit illa acute explicanda nobis, quam argute quam obscure etiam contra Stoicos disserendum. | If in fact we are following after the old Academy—which, as you know, we approve of—we have to explain it as shrewdly as possible, and as subtly and secretly argue against the Stoics. |
