Additional quotes by Epictetus
Bei allem, was deine Seele verlockt oder dir einen Nutzen gewährt oder was du lieb hast, denke daran, dir immer wieder zu sagen, was es eigentlich ist. Fang dabei mit den unscheinbarsten Dingen an. Wenn du einen Krug liebst, so sage dir: »Es ist ein Krug, den ich liebe.« Dann wirst du nämlich nicht deine Fassung verlieren, wenn er zerbricht. Wenn du dein Kind oder deine Frau küßt, so sage dir: »Es ist ein Mensch, den du küßt.« Dann wirst du nämlich nicht die Fassung verlieren, wenn er stirbt.
