Pyrrho, Diogenes Laertius 9.68
"Storm at sea, crew in a panic, and the pig keeps eating. Be that calm." Pyrrho said it in Diogenes Laertius 9.68. Translated from the original Greek by Spartan Surfers.
"τῶν γὰρ συμπλεόντων αὐτῷ ἐσκυθρωπακότων ὑπὸ χειμῶνος, αὐτὸς γαληνὸς ὢν ἀνέρρωσε τὴν ψυχήν, δείξας ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ χοιρίδιον ἐσθίον"Original Greek, Diogenes Laertius 9.68. Greek: Hicks 1925 Loeb text via Perseus; Pyrrho at sea in a storm, as told by Posidonius.
Pyrrho (c. 360–270 BC). Sailed with Alexander to India and came home the first Skeptic. Calm in a storm, like the pig on deck.
Storm at sea, crew in a panic, and the pig keeps eating. Be that calm.
