"Unless we place our religion and our treasure in the same thing, religion will always be sacrificed." — Epictetus

We should not moor a ship with one anchor, or our life with one hope.

It is not death or pain that is to be dreaded, but the fear of pain or death.

One that desires to excel should endeavor in those things that are in themselves most excellent.

Do not laugh much or often or unrestrainedly.
