The wisdom of Epictetus, Greek Philosopher
--Know the things that are within your power and those not within your power.
--First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
--God has entrusted me with myself.
--He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.
--To accuse others for one's own misfortunes is a sign of want of education. To accuse oneself shows that one's education has begun. To accuse neither oneself nor others shows that one's education is complete.
