Not every difficult and dangerous thing is suitable for trai... - Epictetus

"There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power or our will."

"Know you not that a good man does nothing for appearance sake, but for the sake of having done right?"

"I must die. Must I then die lamenting? I must be put in chains. Must I then also lament? I must go into exile. Does any man then hinder me from going with smiles and cheerfulness and contentment?"

"What really frightens and dismays us is not external events themselves, but the way in which we think about them. It is not things that disturb us, but our interpretation of their significance."

"Whoever is going to listen to the philosophers needs a considerable practice in listening."
