Ancient & Medieval Philosophy -- David L. Rouse
- Where Epicurus held that nature was random, Zeno held that it was governed by invarent laws.
- Where Epicurus held that pleasure was the good, Zeno held that it was virtue.
- Zeno envisioned an ideal world-state where each person would be a citizen, not of a particular city, but of the universe or cosmos as a whole.
- Such a state might have been realized by Alexander had he not died.
