Stoicism is truly the patrician philosophy.

Depends. "The greeks" refers to history, philosophy, drama, and poetry. Depending on which route you take, you could move on to other epic poems (Aeneid, Punica); Roman history (Livy, Polybius, Diodorus, etc.); neoplatonist, stoic, cynic, epicurean philosophy; the bible/christian philosophy; or roman drama.

The greeks follow the greeks:
Ancient Greeks -> hellenic greeks -> classical greeks -> hellenic judaism -> greek gnosticism -> greek orthodoxy -> Hellenic Junta -> greek travel brochures.

Confirmed for having never read the greeks. Still a funny joke though.
