Epictetus
“Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle: Some things are within our control, and some things are not. It is only after you have faced up to this fundamental rule and learned to distinguish between what you can and can’t control that inner tranquility and outer effectiveness become possible.”
Epictetus, The Art of Living: The Classical Manual on Virtue, Happiness and Effectiveness

Marcus Aurelius
“A poor soul burdened with a corpse,' Epictetus calls you.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Marilyn Monroe
