Sextus also had the rare ability to think through life's problems clearly and organize the answers in a useful way. He never showed anger or any other strong emotion. He could be perfectly calm like a true Stoic, yet still be kind and caring. People always trusted him, but he never sought attention or fame. He was very learned, but never showed off.
who also had a proper happiness and faculty, rationally and methodically to find out, and set in order all necessary determinations and instructions for a man's life. A man without ever the least appearance of anger, or any other passion; able at the same time most exactly to observe the Stoic _Apathia_, or unpassionateness, and yet to be most tender-hearted: ever of good credit; and yet almost without any noise, or rumour: very learned, and yet making little show.
