#13 "Chrysippus of Soli"


Chrysippus died of laughter while watching his drunk donkey try to eat figs.

"In most respects I am a happy man,
Excepting where Cleanthes is concerned;
For in that matter I am far from fortunate."
– Chrysippus (1)

"The parson here is as bigoted as an old farm-yard cow,
and as stupid as a thoroughbred donkey,
and as rough as a buffalo."
– Franz Schubert (2)
