Additional quotes by Epictetus

The true basis for being respected is to appear refined and modest.

Nothing great is created in a flash.

Furthermore the true Cynic must know that he is sent as a Messenger from God to men, to show unto them that as touching good and evil they are in error; looking for these where they are not to be found, nor ever bethinking themselves where they are.
