“can be so easy to get distracted by, even consumed by, horrible news from all over the world. The proper response of the Stoic to these events is not to not care, but mindless, meaningless sympathy does very little either (and comes at the cost of one’s own serenity, in most cases).”

“As the theologian Reinhold Niebuhr has written, “The most common form of hypocrisy among the privileged classes is to assume that their privileges are the just payments with which society rewards specially useful or meritorious functions,” while accusing the underprivileged of “lacking what they have been denied the right to acquire.”
― Robert B. Reich, The System: Who Rigged It, How We Fix It
