Who was Diogenes?
Many people ask about the name Diogenes," where it comes from and why the company chose to use it. Diogenes of Sinope was a Greek philosopher who lived in the 4th century B.C.E.; he was not a mythic figure as some people assume. Although a contemporary of Aristotle, Plato and Socrates, he did not subscribe to these more famous schools of philosophy. Instead, he was known as a Cynic" philosopher. Cynic philosophy was not a true school of philosophy and looked askance at traditional philosophy, believing that learning was not reserved for the enlightened few. Rather, Cynics believed that the common man was capable of learning all that was necessary. Cynics further differed from the formal schools by emphasizing practical, rather than theoretical, philosophy. Moreover, Cynics taught self-reliance and fostered a certain against-the-grain attitude that did not always endear them to mainstream society. The story of Diogenes is often associated with his search through Grecian streets and alleyways carrying a lantern looking for an honest man." The people of Diogenes Analytical Laboratories, Inc. believe this legend characterizes their own philosophy quite nicely.
