"You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength."
"You are a little soul carrying about a corpse, as Epictetus used to say."
"If someone is able to show me that what I think or do is not right, I will happily change, for I seek the truth, by which no one was ever truly harmed. It is the person who continues in his self-deception and ignorance who is harmed."
"Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking."
