Porphyry quotes Epicurus in his Letter to Marcella (31): ‘Empty are the words of that philosopher who offers therapy for no human suffering. For just as there is no use in medical expertise if it does not give therapy for bodily diseases, so too there is no use in philosophy if it does not expel the suffering of the soul’ (trans. LS 25C).
