Seneca · Moral Letters to Lucilius

Letter 89 — On the Parts of Philosophy (§8)

A quote
Certain of our school, however, although philosophy meant to them “the study of virtue,” and though virtue was the object sought and philosophy the seeker, have maintained nevertheless that the two cannot be sundered. For philosophy cannot exist without virtue, nor virtue without philosophy.
