Additional quotes by Epictetus

You see, then, that it is necessary for you to become a student, that
creature which every one laughs at, if you really desire to make an
examination of your judgements. But this, as you are quite aware,
is not the work of a single hour or day

Where will I find good and bad? In me, in my choices.

Lead me, Fate, wherever you will, and I will cheerfully follow. For, even if I kick and wail, all the same I must follow. — Cleanthes - Epictetus
