Additional quotes by Epictetus

Wherefore it is a shame for man to begin and to leave off where the brutes do. Rather he should begin there, and leave off where Nature leaves off in us: and that is at contemplation, and understanding, and a manner of life that is in harmony with herself. See then that ye die not without being spectators of these things.

There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power or our will.
