about

Robert Burton, searching for tranquilitas animi in his cabinets of notes, fixed upon Epicurus as one of the best exponents of a quiet philosophy and defended him from the malice of "injurious Aristotle" by whose means he had been "slandered without cause, and lashed by all posterity." This vindication was reiterated by Sir Thomas Browne, also a lover of quiet ease, in the latter pages of the Pseudodoxia Epidemica.

Who can but pitty the vertuous Epicurus, who is commonly conceived to have placed his chief felicity in pleasure and sensual delights, and hath therefore left an infamous name behind him... That he was content with bread and water, and when he would dine with Jove, and pretend unto epulation, he desired no other addition then a piece of Cytheridian Cheese.
