Diogenes Estaba el filósofo Diógenes cenando lentejas cuando le vio el filósofo Arístipo, que vivía confortablemente a base de adular al rey. Y le dijo Arístipo: "Si aprendieras a ser sumiso al rey, no tendrías que comer esta basura de lentejas" A lo que replicó Diógenes: "Si hubieras tú aprendido a comer lentejas, no tendrías que adular al rey"

Diogenes The philosopher Diogenes was dining on bread and lentils. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus who lived in considerable comfort by fawning on the king. Said Aristippus, “Learn subservience to the king and you will not live on lentils.” Said Diogenes, “Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to cultivate the king.” Anthony de Mello
