  • Zeno of Citium was an ancient Greek philosopher who founded the Stoic school of philosophy. His journey began with a twist of fate: He was shipwrecked and lost his material wealth near Athens.

His teachings, centered around virtue and reason, laid the foundation for Stoicism, a philosophy that continues to influence thought today.
