notes from the underworld, humor and other stuff
About Me:
DIOGENES: You allude to—
CRATES: Wisdom, independence, truth, frankness, freedom.
DIOGENES: To be sure; now I think of it, I did inherit all this from Antisthenes, and left it to you with some addition.
CRATES: Others, however, were not interested in such property; no one paid us the attentions of an expectant heir; they all had their eyes on gold, instead.
