"We must make haste then, not only because we are daily nearer to death, but also because the conception of things and the understanding of them cease first."
"You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength."
"From the philosopher Catulus, never to be dismissive of a friend's accusation, even if it seems unreasonable, but to make every effort to restore the relationship to its normal condition."
