The Daily Stoic Podcast: 西塞罗和卡托是同时代最伟大的斯多葛哲学家，他们既是朋友也是对手。西塞罗的贡献在于保存了大量的斯多葛学派著作，他的文笔优美，对斯多葛思想的传播起到了重要作用。然而，他同时也是一个极度渴望权力和名利的人，在政治困境中常常选择自保而非坚持原则。 相比之下，卡托虽然几乎没有留下任何著作，但他的一生却完美地诠释了斯多葛哲学的实践。他以其勇敢、坚定和对正义与美德的 unwavering commitment 而闻名，他的品格本身就是斯多葛思想的最佳体现。 因此，问题在于：谁的贡献更大？谁是更伟大的榜样？两者都不完美，但他们代表了两种不同的道路：言论与行动，文字与实践。世界当然需要两者兼顾，但如果必须二选一，我们更倾向于后者。卡托的实践为我们提供了更直接、更具说服力的斯多葛哲学的理解，他的生活本身就是一部斯多葛哲学的教科书。西塞罗的贡献在于保存和传播，卡托的贡献在于实践和诠释。
