THE WORDS OF EPICTETUS
It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.
Epictetus
***
People are not disturbed by things, but by the view they take of them.
Epictetus
***
Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.
Epictetus
***
The greater the difficulty the more glory in surmounting it. Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests.
Epictetus
***
You are a little soul carrying around a corpse.
Epictetus
***

Epictetus

Epictetus

Epictetus

***

Epictetus

Neither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.
Epictetus
***
We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.
Epictetus
***
The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.
Epictetus
***
If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.
Epictetus
***
