“Then I think I’ve seen him,” said Miss Meteyard. “Tow-coloured, supercilious-looking blighter. I ran into him coming out of Pymmie’s room yesterday. Horn-rims. Cross between Ralph Lynn and Bertie Wooster.”

Jim Mattis
“You don’t always control your circumstances, but you can always control your response.”
Jim Mattis, Call Sign Chaos

Seneca
“When a person is sick, it makes no difference if you lay him on a wooden bed or a golden one: he’ll take the disease along where you carry him. Even so, it matters not at all whether one sick in mind is placed in wealth or poverty. The trouble is his own, and it follows him.”
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Jim Mattis
“The first is competence. Be brilliant in the basics. Don’t dabble in your job; you must master it.”
Jim Mattis, Call Sign Chaos

Seneca
“> [The realization of philosophy’s importance] must be fixed more deeply through daily rehearsal. It is more work to follow through on honorable aims than it is to conceive of them. One must persevere and add strength by constant study, until excellent intentions become excellence of mind.
>”
Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Seneca - Letters from a Stoic: The Complete Collection of 124 Letters, also known as Moral Letters to Lucilius. Translated by Richard M. Gummere

Jim Mattis
“If you haven't read hundreds of books, you are functionally illiterate, and you will be incompetent, because your personal experiences alone aren't broad enough to sustain you.”
Jim Mattis, Call Sign Chaos: Learning to Lead
