Spring will inevitably come, if not in life then in death." "Any bad day for the ego not have is like longing for a fig is a good day for the soul." - Robin Sharma Any wound inflicted upon your ego is just a learning experience Ok, this one was pretty ironic considering that Seneca was one of the richest Romans of all time ON WEALTH ON ENTERTAINMENT "Society has grown so greedy that we kill other men not for fear or provocation, but for entertainment." - Seneca "Gold and silver are merely the feces of the earth; only covetous humans have assigned them value." - Marcus Aurelius Money and wealth are just societal abstractions "Take a moment and add up in your mind all the time you've spent gossiping about other people.

What does that s--- matter? Avoid the chatty gossip queens of the world. you can be assured that your path is determined for you, or there is not a God, in which case you have free will to do what you please. Both outcomes. are favorable, so why worry yourself over religion?" - Marcus Aurelius Whether or not you follow religion is without consequence, because the existence of God is without necessity for your own virtue Yet again, wealth and value are arbitrary and a great man sees past them both "Instead, cultivate a small group of friends representing many disparate At the time it was about gladiatorial games; now it's about reality TV viewpoints." - Seneca people use to gauge their own popularity against one another ON GOSSIP ON POSSESSION ON GRATITUDE ON ROLE MODELS ON REPUTATION ON "An object has unlimited value until the moment one declares it his possession." Seneca Truly good things - the air, the water, the "I'm constantly amazed by how easily we show vanity, and how we love ourselves more than we love everyone else, and yet we value the opinions of others more than we value the voice of our own conscience." - Marcus Aurelius "If you reject that which is fashionable, and say and do and wear provocative things meant to draw commentary, you will only draw the ire of the mob, and they will be reluctant to see you as a moral beacon." - Seneca trees and grasses and birds - exist in common unless one has an overabundance of pride." - Seneca "If wisdom was to be offered to me on the condition that I could never tell anyone what I've learned, I would reject it." - Seneca We must all educate each other constantly, or else education is useless Those who disdain poverty lack understanding, for even in poverty one should find happiness ON RELIGION ON WISDOM ON WRONGDOING ON KARMA "Either there is a God, in which case "Whenever you do something wrong, you're hurting yourself, and making your soul just a little bit worse than it was five minutes ago." - Marcus Aurelius "Very soon, you will be ashes or a skeleton, and maybe a name, and maybe not even that [...] the things in life we held dearest to us. turned out to be vain, putrid, and contemptible. But the most weighty and serious things [...] truth, justice, and faith, will remain in place forever." Life is about the journey, not the destination, and there is no miserable part of your journey ON HUMILITY ON VANITY ON CHARACTER "A great man treats his "Just as a natural spring is not earthenware as silver and his corrupted by the urine of a passing silver as earthenware." - Seneca traveler, so too you shall not be corrupted by transient hardships to your character." - Marcus Aurelius Your character is constantly changing and evolving; it should not be offended by temporary setbacks "So, while you are here on this earth and not yet up in Heaven, practice modesty and humility; justice and piety; and be not materialistic and vain." - Marcus Aurelius "And if nothing at all comes after death, then at least there has been an end to your pain." . Marcus Aurelius ON ENVY ON "Envy is th ulce the soul." - Socrates his home; his livestock; his wife and children; his crops; and his fortune, but nonetheless smiles and says 'I have everything I need."" - Seneca The Golden Seneca Rule shines throughout history My single favorite quote from all of Stoic philosophy: if you want to see true courage, look at the man who has nothing and yet is grateful of This one technically predated Stoicism but it was influential to the school "Every great man in history's way, Those we revere and those we hate, Had to go home at the end of the day, Squat down, turn around, and defecate." - Me "It is within no man's power to have whatever he wants; but it is within every man's power not to wish for what he hasn't got, and cheerfully treat everything he gets as a gift." - Seneca "Want" is a choice This is a conclusion I reached on my own after reading Stoic philosophy and to my knowledge, nobody else has said it Gratitude is of the natural logos When we do bad things, we know they are bad, and the guilt alone is our punishment for them At any moment, all you have might get yanked from you; a virtuous man is prepared to lose it all "A after a hunting dog he has hunted; and a honeybee when she has made her honey do not seek applause and commendation for their work - they simply get up the following morning and do it again, for it is their natural duty." "Thus, you must be like them, and do your duty without further thought." - Marcus Aurelius If we cut ourselves off from potentially- powerful knowledge, we are only harming our own souls A simple and good life is the path of least resistance. A fish swims with the stream's current and is ON DUTY ON TRUST ON STRENGTH "Teaching someone to live is like teaching him to wrestle: you must teach him to stand upright, to brace for adversity, to grapple with it, and never to allow himself to be pinned to the ground." - Marcus Aurelius We trust other people so much, but we see our own gut as an enemy thus content. Why fight the current, defy nature, and live a life of petty anger, always coveting your neighbor, when you can be simple and good?" - Marcus Aurelius "When you have done something good for another person, must you be recognized for it? Or will the universe reward you in some other way?" - Marcus Aurelius Demanding public recognition is for vain saps "Crying over the dead is a belated form of showing the affection they deserved when they were alive." - Seneca ON TRAVEL ON 'GREATNESS' ON SIMPLICITY ON WAR "It is useless to seek a destination while traveling. Your destination is everywhere. Every place, even the most decrepit land, contains great beauty and knowledge." - Seneca "Who is stopping you from living a simple and good life? This is the state of nature. You are born with goodness and without material lust. You must actively seek to become spiteful, bitter, and hateful. You must actively try to lust after possessions and acquire them." Tell your loved ones you love them now, so you won't have to do it over their corpse Love your family, or else they are just acquaintances "A man cries when he is near death. Why? Did he think he would be alive for a thousand more years? What's the point of tears? You're only wasting one of your few remaining breaths." - Seneca Really harsh way to put it, but so honest "Enemies on the battlefield, stripped of their attire, find themselves on the same side." - Hadrian "Trusting everyone and trusting no one are equally dangerous." - Seneca F---, why is 'The This one inspired Machiavelli in The Prince Internationale' suddenly playing in my head In short: don't do controversial s--- "Watch what people pray for. If one prays to lie with another, you have no need of that man. If one prays that his child does not die, that man is virtuous." - Marcus Aurelius Even in the modern day, look at the things your peers want, and you will discover their character based off that ON GRIEF ON DISAGREEMENTS ON AMBITION "All disagreements are caused by a lack of effective communication. All disagreements are resolved by an abundance of effective communication." - Me "Ambition runs at such a fever pitch that if even a single person is ahead of you in the race, you perceive yourself as taking last place. Why?" - Seneca This is a conclusion I reached on my own after reading Stoic philosophy and to my knowledge, nobody else has said it We are already dead; we have always been alive. Appreciate it all. Unfortunately, most people think in absolutes - that's why you should strive to be better than them "What kind of soul do you want to have? Rea REASON ON REASON able, or unreasonable? Simple, reasonable." For context, he says that too often people like to "dance" around life, when in reality they must wrestle with it "A night without sleep is just a chance to think in peace." - Hadrian We vilify insomnia, but it's really not that bad "But what man has a reasonable soul, so we know after whom to model ourselves?

"If If you wish to be hated, hate." - Hecato of Rhodes "Bonds of blood are weak when they are not reinforced by affection." - Hadrian "Never learn for your own benefit. The moment you learn a new skill or new knowledge, immediately share it with those you hold dear. Thus comes mutual benefit." - Education goes to "I do not know after death. But one night in Syria I spent the entire evening lying on my back and watching the stars, and that was the closest conscious experience I had to what stands beyond the veil." - Hadrian "To be feared is to fear. No man who strikes terror into his peers is able to rest easily." - Seneca waste if it is not shared Why compare yourself to those more successful than you?

Why add, 'oh, why is my life so unfortunate?"" - Marcus Aurelius My second- favorite quote in Stoicism: why complain about web, a calculator wishes to correct his mistakes, and nature wishes to destroy everything and start from the very clay." - Hadrian Nature is scary, man - respect it ON ON of your peers with which you disagree divert you from your affection for them." - Marcus Aurelius Don't allow hubris to impact ON THE MOB "If you look at society, you will find on one end a mob desperate for revolution and on the other a mob clamoring for stability." - Seneca Would you really let something so trivial as politics ruin your friendship? your lineage And you should be in the center, and ignore both extremisms really? ON POVERTY ON DAUNTLESSNESS ON TOLERANCE ON HAPPINESS ON SADNESS ON FRIENDSHIP ON SOCIETY ON DUPLICITY "The wise man is he who has lost "Poverty's no evil "Do not let the opinions "To understand another person, you must yourself be open to understanding, and absorb as much of their knowledge as you donate of yours." - Marcus Aurelius "Another man may hurt you.

The Wayne Gretzky of his time any problem when you can just solve it? ON FUN Bacchus was the Roman God of drinking; the quote means that those who give themselves over to fun, without doubt, will find themselves in safe hands ON FAITH "When someone asks 'have you ever seen the gods you worship? How can you be sure they exist?' I answer 'I've never seen my soul, either, and yet I revere it and feel its power every day."" - Marcus Aurelius We admire powerful people, but how happy are they, Faith is more powerful than almost anything else in the universe ON WHOLESOMENESS "Life is given to you by the gods.
