🧊Dreaming in the best state bedroom above Paris - 📌The state bedchamber of Queen Hedvig Eleonora in Drottningholm Slott. Created for the queen in the mid 17th century, it was never used in its final purposes, because the monarch prefered modest life. This space was used only for protocolary uses until the queen Louisa Ulrika used since its arrival there (displacing the King to another room). All the decorative set was designed by Nicodemus Tessin, and created by Burchard Precht, Nicolaes Millich, Carlo Carove and David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl. @kungligaslotten - #palace #baroque #castle #admagazine #interiors #art #palacio #architecture (en Drottningholm Slott) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClEqDUzAdst/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Wisdom from the Early Stoics, Zeno of Citium 58

Virtue, in the first place, is in one sense the perfection of anything in general, say of a statue; again, it may be non-intellectual, like health, or intellectual, like prudence. 

For Hecato says in his first book On the Virtues that some are scientific and based upon theory, namely, those which have a structure of theoretical principles, such as prudence and justice; others are non-intellectual, those that are regarded as co-extensive and parallel with the former, like health and strength. 

For health is found to attend upon and be co-extensive with the intellectual virtue of temperance, just as strength is a result of the building of an arch. 

These are called non-intellectual, because they do not require the mind's assent; they supervene and they occur even in bad men: for instance, health, courage. 

The proof, says Posidonius in the first book of his treatise on Ethics, that virtue really exists is the fact that Socrates, Diogenes, and Antisthenes and their followers made moral progress. And for the existence of vice as a fundamental fact the proof is that it is the opposite of virtue. 

That it, virtue, can be taught is laid down by Chrysippus in the first book of his work On the End, by Cleanthes, by Posidonius in his Protreptica, and by Hecato; that it can be taught is clear from the case of bad men becoming good.  

Panaetius, however, divides virtue into two kinds, theoretical and practical; others make a threefold division of it into logical, physical, and ethical; while by the school of Posidonius four types are recognized, and more than four by Cleanthes, Chrysippus, Antipater, and their followers. Apollophanes for his part counts but one, namely, practical wisdom. 

—Diogenes Laërtius, 7.90-92
