>Be a roman amongst greeks
What is this supposed to mean?

>> No.14283478

Greeks are philosophers aka people who spent all day theorizing,talking about what they are going to to but never actually practicing what they preach

Romans are practical people,its why stoicism was so appealing to them. let your action be your words.
