Excerpt from The History of Philosophy, From the Earliest Times to the Beginning of the Present Century, Vol. 2 of 2: Drawn Up From Brucker's Historia Critica Philosophi??? Animated by such examples, many other persons of eminence in Rome attached themselves to the study of philosophy, particularly among those who were devoted to the profession of the law. Quintin Tubero, n a ne phew of Scipio Africanus, who was at this time one of the most celebrated masters of civil law, was also conver not with philosophical learning, and professed himself a follower of the Stacie sect. The moral doctrine of this sect was peculiarly suitable to his natural temper, and to the habits of temperance and moderation which he had learned from his father, one of those excellent Romans, who, in the highest offices of the state, retained the simplicity of rustic manners. Confirmed in these habits by the precepts of Panaetius, when Tubero was called upon, as proctor, to give a public entertainment in honour of his uncle, he provided only wooden couches covered with goat-skins, earthen vessels, and a frugal repast. The people, who expected a splendid feast, were dissatisfied, and dismissed him from his oflice: but the action reflected no discredit either upon the lawyer or the philosopher; for it was, as Seneca remarks, an instructive lesson of moderation to m Romans, who, when they saw the sacred tables of Jupiter served with earthen vessels, would learn that men ought to be contented with such things as the gods them selves did not disdain to use. Panaetius dedicated to his pupil a treatise upon patience, and advised him to commit to memory the discourses of the academic Crates concern ing grief whence it appears, that Tubero studied the Stoic philosophy chiefly with a view to the conduct of life.
