    For, just as Plato and the rest of the Socratics, and after them those who proceeded from these, are read by all, even by such as do not approve those teachings or do not pursue them most earnestly, whereas Epicurus and Metrodorus are taken up by scarcely anyone but their own followers, so these Latin writers are read by those alone who think their doctrines rightly stated.
