"In order to see that happiness can't consist in things governed by chance, look at it this way:
If happiness is the highest good of rational nature and anything that can be taken away is not the highest good – since it is surpassed by what can't be taken away – Fortune by her very mutability can't hope to lead to happiness."

"In deserting you, Fortune has taken her friends with her and left those who are really yours.
Had you remained untouched and, as you thought, blessed by Fortune, you would have been unable to get such knowledge at any price. So you are weeping over lost riches when you have really found the most precious of all riches — friends who are true friends."
