Quote

When Diogenes came to Olympia and perceived some Rhodian youths dressed with great splendor and magnificence, he said with a smile of contempt, This is all arrogance. Afterwards some Lacedemonians came in his way, as mean and as sordid in their attire as the dress of the others was rich. This, said he, is also arrogance.
