First Book: Of Providence
Favorite quote: To be always prosperous, and to pass through life without a twinge of mental distress, is to remain ignorant of one half of nature.
So many quotable phrases in just over 20 pages of text, I also love the way he writes in an action-oriented manner. Most stoic philosophers shy away from that.
