"You may be always victorious if you will never enter into any contest where the issue does not wholl..." — 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.
