These are quotes from Stoicism : Epictetus - Discourses
Epictetus was a Greek philosopher who lived in the first and second centuries AD. He was born a slave but eventually gained his freedom and became a well-known and respected philosopher. Epictetus believed in living a simple and virtuous life, and he emphasized the importance of personal responsibility and the power of the mind in shaping our lives. He taught that we cannot control external events, but we can control our reactions to them and how we choose to live our lives.
