Still loving this book, and now eager to read more Epictetus because of this incredible phrasing:
"Under no circumstance ever say 'I have lost something', only 'I returned it'. Did a child of yours die? No, it was returned. Your wife died? No, she was returned."
Struggling not to think in Blockbuster metaphors.
Anyway go read this book, it's great!!
