“If you have chosen a simple life, don’t make a show of it. If you want to practice simplicity, do so quietly and for yourself, not for others.”
― Chuck Chakrapani, The Good Life Handbook: Epictetus' Stoic Classic Enchiridion

“If you meet temptation, use self-control; if you meet pain, use fortitude; if you meet revulsion, use patience.”
― Epictetus, The Manual: A Philosopher's Guide to Life

“This Presence is what streams or flows, to use the image, through the mind/body apparatus, animating it, rendering it conscious; so conscious that it actually thinks, as most others like it also think, that it is an individual autonomous entity, a separate being which is conscious. But it is not. That is the illusion. There are no separate beings. There is nobody home.”
― David Carse, Perfect Brilliant Stillness
