Read what you want, it's easier. When you genuinely want to read the greeks, go back to them.

wikipedia, youtube, sparknotes and other sites like it, just plain skimming the books, there are many ways or reading the book without actually reading the book.

Just read what you want and go back to the greeks later

Apply this concept to literally anything else and all existence is yours
Read some secondary works that give an overview of it. That's how most people read philosophy anyway. It's more interesting and less work.
