He did not mark out for himself a single form of philosophy but combined many of them, and never

v.1.p.147
would quite reveal which one he favoured. Probably he had most in common with Socrates, although he seemed to follow the man of Sinope[*] in dress and in easy-going ways. He did not, however, alter the details of his life in order to excite the wonder and attract the gaze of men he met, but led the same life as everyone else, was simple and not in the least subject to pride, and played his part in society and politics.
