The only good roman philosophers were also greek (Aurelius, Epictetus, Laertes, Plotinus, and Plutarch). Latin-speaking Romans only had Seneca and Cicero, and then a metric shit-ton of Christians.

It's pretty messed up to be hating on single mothers like that.
"The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato." (Whitehead)
Read Plato, with that you also have Socrates. Add Aristoteles, and you've got the big 3 down. Then maybe consider Epicurus, and for a few pre-socraticus, Democritus and Heraclitus. Then you should probably move to some Roman/early christian guys - e.g. Boethius.

There are none, except perhaps Aristotle.
