Diogenes for the Day, 8/22/2018

Over his grave they set up a pillar, and a dog in Parian marble upon it. Subsequently his fellow citizens honored him with bronze statues, on which these verses were inscribed: 

Time makes even bronze grow old. But your glory, Diogenes, all eternity will never destroy.

Since you alone did point out to mortals the lesson of self-sufficiency and the easiest path of life.
