Quoted text:
“The poets do not depict Zeus as playing the lyre and singing in person,” pointed out Aristotle[1] (1339b).
Can you find a more precise source for this quotation? We did find one that quotes this precisely, but it seemed perhaps less authoritative than this one, even though that says slightly differently: “Zeus does not sing and harp to the poets himself.”
