"Liberty is having a mind superior to injury, a mind that makes itself the only source from which its pleasures spring, that separates itself from all external things, avoiding the unquiet life of one who fears everybody’s laughter, everybody’s tongue. For if there is anyone who can offer an insult, who cannot?"
—Seneca, On the Constancy of the Wise Man 19.2 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"The present moment is enough for you,” Marcus Aurelius told himself in his Meditations.
As Pierre Hadot wrote in his book Philosophy as a Way of Life, this had a double meaning: 
It is enough to keep you busy; you have no need to think about anything else; andIt is enough to make you happy; there is no need to seek for anything else. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
