Trang 49 - Did I ever tell you that I was immortal? You will do your part, and I mine; it is yours to kill, and mine to die intrepid; yours to banish me, mine to depart untroubled.
Trang 46 - I refuse to tell, for this is in my power. "But I will chain you." What say you, fellow? Chain me? My leg you will chain— yes, but my will— no, not even Zeus can conquer that. "I will imprison you.
Trang 45 - We must make the best of those things that are in our power, and take the rest as nature gives it. What do you mean by ' nature ' ? I mean, God's will. ' What? Am I to be beheaded now, and I alone...
Trang 70 - IF these statements of the philosophers are true, that God and men are akin, there is but one course open to men, to do as Socrates did : never to reply to one who asks his country, ' I am an Athenian ', or, ' I am a Corinthian ', but ' I am a citizen of the universe.
Trang 44 - Epictetus, if it were possible I would have made your body and your possessions (those trifles that you prize) free and untrammelled. But as things are — never forget this — this body is not yours, it is but a clever mixture of clay. But since I could not make it free, I gave you a portion in our divinity, this faculty of impulse to act and not to act, of will to get and will to avoid ; in a word, the faculty which can turn impressions to right use.
Trang 90 - When, then, you have shut the doors and made darkness within, remember never to say that you are alone, for you are not; but God is within, and your Demon is within, and what need have they of light to see what you are doing?
Trang 233 - Is it each faculty itself? Did you ever hear the faculty of vision saying anything about itself? or the faculty of hearing? or wheat, or barley, or a horse or a dog? No; but they are appointed as ministers and slaves to serve the faculty which has the power of making use of the appearances of things. And if you inquire what is the value of each thing, of whom do you inquire? who answers you? How then can any other faculty...
Trang 103 - Fruit-giver' and 'Father of men and gods', you see that he cannot win these names or do these works unless he does some good to the world at large: and in general he has so created the nature of the rational animal, that he can attain nothing good for himself, unless he contributes some service to the community. So it turns out that to do everything for his own sake is not unsocial. For what do you expect? Do you expect a man to hold aloof from himself and his own interest?
Trang 177 - Here you see the beginning of philosophy, in the discovery of the conflict of men's minds with one another, and the attempt to seek for the reason of this conflict, and the condemnation of mere opinion, as a thing not to be trusted; and a search to determine whether your opinion is true, and an attempt to discover a standard, just as we discover the balance to deal with weights and the rule to deal with things straight and crooked. This is the beginning of philosophy. 'Are all opinions right which...
Trang 46 - I must die. But must I die groaning? I must be imprisoned. But must I whine as well? I must suffer exile. Can any one then hinder me from going with a smile, and a good courage, and at peace?
