"It is the nature of the wise to resist pleasures, but the foolish to be a slave to them" — Epiktet

Everybody should do at least two things each day that he hates to do, just for practice.

Egoist: A person of low taste, more interested in himself than in me

Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power

Man lives for science as well as bread.

A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself a liar

We are doomed to cling to a life even while we find it unendurable.
