The Stoics, for example, assert that of the indifferents some are preferred, some rejected, and others neither preferred nor rejected,¹—the preferred being such as have sufficient value, like health and wealth; the rejected such as have not sufficient value, like poverty and sickness; while extending the finger or bending it in are cases of the neither preferred nor rejected.
