The power of words.

If you understand the power of words, then it is not necessary to shout it out loud, for we need not as many words, rather only, that we impart effective words.

Words should be scattered like seeds, no matter how small it may seem, if it has found favourable ground, it unfolds its strength & spreads.

Seek & let your words find a favourable mind, One who will receive & assimilate them.

On Quiet Conversation

我是怎么来的？，我是怎么进入这种状态的？

我怎样才能解放自己？，你无法逃避不可避免的必然事物，但你可以克服它们；强制地造出一条路。

这条路是由哲学提供的，把自己置于理性的控制之下；你将从中学到该做什么，而不犯错误。

一个人并不是经过深思熟虑才导致形势&状况的局面；一个人往往被冲动所驱使。

How did I get here ? & How did I get into this condition?  

How can I free myself? 

Regardless of how, Know that you cannot escape necessities, however you can overcome them; thereby By force a Way is made.  

The Way is afforded by philosophy & put yourself under the control of Reason; 

You will learn from it what to undertake & not blunder into it.  

One has not been led to that situation by forethought; 

One has been driven to it by impulse.    

On Allegiance to Virtue

你快乐吗？

他们说你很快乐，那又怎么样？，你开心吗？

繁荣是一件动荡不安的事情，它折磨着自己，就像一群人冲向一滩池水，把它弄得泥泞不堪，同时又把它抽干。

命运对人格没有管辖权！

调整你的性格，让它感觉到，无论事情如何发展，它都会保持不变，既无痛苦也无收获。

Are you Happy?

They called you happy, & what of it ?, Were you happy?

Prosperity is a turbulent thing, it torments itself, just as a crowd rushes to a pool of water, & rendering it muddy, while draining it dry.

Fortune has no jurisdiction, over character !

Regulate your character, so that it feels, neither pain nor gain, that remains the same, however things may fall.

如何成为好学生？

一项任务一旦开始就完成了一半，你该决定并开始。

学生应该如何行动？

如果一个人的行为不和谐，他们的灵魂就会扭曲。

确保你所有的行动和言语，协调一致，并同在一个模子上盖章。

行善的更大部分是成为善的意愿。

完美无缺的人，是没有约束或需求的人。

What makes a good student?

A task once begun is half done, decide & begin.

How should a student act or behave?

If a person’s acts are out of harmony, their soul is crooked.

See to it that all your actions & words, harmonise & correspond with each other, & are stamped in the same mold.

The best part of goodness is, the Will, to become good!

One who is complete, isn't constraint, nor wanting.

如何学习斯多葛主义？

斯多葛学派不是对格言和谚语的研究，因此，出于这些原因，逐行研究斯多葛学派哲学的智慧，制定一个计划，编织一部杰作。

记性是一回事，理解是另一回事；记忆只是储存；然而，了解意味着一切都是你的。
