Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. IV, Origen…
(1885)
“ And as it does not beseem those who profess the doctrines of Plato to offer a defence of Epicurus and his impious opinions, so neither is it for us to defend the diagram, or to refute the accusations brought against it by Celsus. We may therefore allow his charges on these points to pass as superfluous and useless, [5] for we would censure more severely than Celsus any who should be carried away by such opinions. ”
