*It is interesting that for Zeno of Citium,** creator of the Stoic philosophy (who comes across in the E[nyclopaedia] B[ritannica]’s emphasis, rightly or wrongly, as a recognisable type of second-order creator): ‘All virtues are based exclusively on right knowledge *** – self-control (sōphrosynē) being the knowledge of the right choice, fortitude the knowledge of what must be endured and what must not, and justice the right knowledge ‘in distribution’. Is Right Knowledge = Prudence?***

*E[nyclopaedia] B[ritannica] XXV.749-750

**[c.334 - c.262bc]

***NB

****cp Zoroastrianism, Buddhism.
