Stoic Philosophy

We have two ears and one mouth, so we should listen more than we say.

Whoever cannot seek the unforeseen sees nothing for the known way is an impasse.

In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.

He who has overcome his fears will be truly free.

Choice, not chance, determines your destiny.

The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you choose, what you think and what you do is who you become.

The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well.

By desiring little, a poor man makes himself rich.

Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

Self-knowledge reveals to the soul that its natural motion is not, if uninterrupted, in a straight line, but circular, as around some inner object, about a center, the point to which it owes its origin.

Man is most nearly himself when he achieves the seriousness of a child at play.
