In your role as someone’s brother/sister, be respectful, ready to yield, and gracious. Do not fight over material things, things over which you have no control. [Epictetus, D 2.10]
You are mistaken if you believe the rich put up with losses more cheerfully than the poor. A wound is equally painful in a large body as it is in a small body. [Seneca, T 7]
It is this earth that gave me food and drink all these years. It is greatly abused, but still allows me to walk on it. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.4]
Since we don’t know the future, we should choose things that are preferable by nature, because we are born for this purpose. [Epictetus, D 2.10]
If you compare all other ills that make us suffer – deaths, sicknesses, fears, regrets, the endurance of pains and labours – with the misery that money causes us, the latter will far outweigh all the others. [Seneca, T 7]
Keep your eyes straight ahead and follow your own nature and the nature of the world. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.3]
The two faculties – power to choose and read on –make you a citizen of the world. You are a principal part of it, not a subsidiary. [Epictetus, D 2.10]
When we select our friends' temperaments, we must take care to select those who are, as far as possible, unspotted by the world; for the way to breed disease is to mix what is healthy with what is sick. [Seneca, T 7]
If something is good, don’t give up your right to it. Those who criticize you have their own motives and impulses. Don’t be distracted by them. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.3]
Modest acts preserve the modest man, whereas immodest acts destroy him; and faithful acts preserve the faithful man while acts of the opposite character destroy him. [Epictetus, D 2.9]
Your peace of mind will be destroyed by friends who are disturbed and greet everything with a groan. [Seneca, T 7]
Any action or saying that is in accordance with nature is right for you. Don’t be put off by other people’s comments and criticism. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.3]
Don’t try to be a philosopher when you can barely be a human being. [Epictetus, D 2.9]
But these days, when there is such a shortage of good people, you must be less choosy. However, avoid miserable people who grumble and find something to complain of in everything. [Seneca, T 7]
Set aside and forget every annoyance, distraction, and false impression. Be at peace. Totally. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.2]
Unless we apply the correct opinions, we will just be interpreting other people’s judgments. [Epictetus, D 2.9]
In a time of plague, we must be careful not to sit near infected people, and in whom the disease is already burning because, by so doing, we will attract danger and catch the plague from their very breath. [Seneca, T 7]
You don’t love yourself enough. If you did, you’d love your nature and what it asks of you. [Marcus Aurelius, M 5.1]
Acts of opposite character preserve the opposite character. Shamelessness by shameless behaviour, dishonesty by dishonest behaviour, slanderousness by slander, a bad temper by anger, and miserliness by disproportionate taking compared to giving. [Epictetus, D 2.9]
Nothing delights the mind as much as a faithful and pleasant friendship. [Seneca, T 7]

Spiritual enlightenment goes by varying names across traditions, & it was not until the 20th C that our understandings of it became more integrated, validated, thru widespread psychological studies, brain scans, & fruitful efforts to bridge mystic origins of religious traditions.
One universal nature brings about everything. There is no rival to it. There is nothing beyond it and nothing within it. There is nothing apart from it. Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 6.9
📡 4. Seek out different perspectives: • Take courses by @StoicWeek / @philosopher70 • Check out The Stoa (@peternlimberg) • Read THE STOIC magazine (@TheStoicGym) • Read articles on Medium - medium.com/stoicism-philo…
@TheStoicGym “No matter what anyone says or does, my task is to be good. Like gold or emerald or purple repeating to itself, "No matter what anyone says or does, my task is to be emerald, my color undiminished." -Marcus Aurelius
Greatly abused is an understatement. I why we as a species are hell bent on our own extinction. 5 extinctions are studied and yet we cannot learn from the errors of the past.
It is this earth that gave me food and drink all these years. It is greatly abused, but still allows me to walk on it. Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 5.4
The principle of karma. That what do to another, you also do ultimately to yourself. You have to bear the guilt of everything you do & don't do, & the psychological ramifications of that.
Your part is to be serene, to be simple. Anyone who does wrong does wrong to himself. Marcus Aurelius, Meditation 4.26
I was recently interviewed by @KaiWhiting for the June 2020 edition of The Stoic, discussing my new book and the communal priorities of Stoic philosophy. Get a copy from @TheStoicGym here: thestoicgym.com/the-stoic-subs…
