	Diogenes Laertius Lives of the Philosophers: Cleanthes, translated by C.D. Yonge
		BY DIOGENES LAERTIUS, TRANSLATED BY C.D. CLEANTHES was a native of Assos, and the son of Phanias.
		Hecaton tells us in his Apophthegms, that once when a young man said, "If a man who beats his stomach gastrizei, then a man who slaps his thigh mêrizei," he replied, "Do you stick to your diamêrizei." But analogous words do not always indicate analogous facts.
		Once when he was conversing with a youth, he asked him if he felt; and as he said that he did, "Why is it then," said Cleanthes, "that I do not feel that you feel?"
