Everyone wants to live a meaningful life. Long before our own day of self-help books offering 12-step programs and other guides to attain happiness, the philosophers of ancient Greece explored the riddle of what makes a life worth living, producing a wide variety of ideas and examples to follow.
This rich tradition was recast by Diogenes Laërtius into an anthology, a miscellany of maxims and anecdotes, that generations of Western readers have consulted for edification as well as entertainment ever since Lives of the Eminent Philosophers, first compiled in the AD third century, came to prominence in Renaissance Italy. To this day, it remains a crucial source for much of what we know about the origins and practice of philosophy in ancient Greece, covering a longer period of time and a larger number of figures - from Pythagoras and Socrates to Aristotle and Epicurus - than any other ancient source.

@Busho that’s a long wait! Glad I found this one to share

I had no idea that there was an audiobook of this!
I’ve always felt that Diogenes Laertius, and Pliny the Elder, are two authors who give you a sense of just how different the Classical world was: how bizarre, how unfathomable.
And since one of the lessons we learn from the Classics is just how different folk can be - that makes him nearly essential.
Another crock of gold, merida769.

Trust you! Great find, uber-stimulation. Agree with all the foregoing.
But what’s up with the Greeks? Their achievements were the greatest the world had ever seen, and then they just sat on their asses, eating olives!
