Diogenes Laertius Vitae philosophorum 9.12.109

1. Ὁ παρ’ ἡμῶν. Reiske took this to mean my fellowcitizen, ὁ τῆς ἡμετέρας πόλεως. Hence Usener inferred that Nicias of Nicaea was the author here used by D. L.; but nothing that we know of this Nicias tends to confirm such a conjecture. In favour of the translation adopted by most scholars it may be urged that Strabo calls the Stoics οἱ ἡμέτεροι, just as Cicero calls the Academics nostri. Even if we accept this meaning, a Sceptic like myself, a further subtlety arises. Is D. L. here speaking in his own person or has he merely transcribed ὁ παρ’ ἡμῶν from a monograph of a Sceptic? Something may be urged on either side; for reasons given in Introd. p. xiii, the former conjecture seems somewhat more probable.
