A philosophy that saw self-possession as the key to an existence lived 'in accordance with nature', Stoicism called for the restraint of animal instincts and the severing of emotional ties. These beliefs were formulated by the Athenian followers of Zeno in the fourth century BC, but it was in Seneca (c. 4 BC - AD 65) that the Stoics found their most eloquent advocate. Stoicism, as expressed in the Letters, helped ease pagan Rome's transition to Christianity, for it upholds upright ethical ideals and extols virtuous living, as well as expressing disgust for the harsh treatment of slaves and the inhumane slaughters witnessed in the Roman arenas. Seneca's major contribution to a seemingly unsympathetic creed was to transform it into a powerfully moving and inspiring declaration of the dignity of the individual mind.

Truth and nature& a rule of life. 古羅馬的孔子,讀起來令人平靜,哲學穿越兩韆年的月光,思考的是同一個宇宙/時間/對待人生的方法,不由令人感動。從不同的起點和過程前進而達到同一信念,不正是真理本身應有之意嗎。No man is good by accident. Virtue has to be learnt. /A love philtre compounded without drug or herb or witch’s spell. It is this: if you wish to be loved, love.
评分老頭子挺嘮叨的,得花點時間整理書摘。
评分伴隨飛行和倒時差的一次閱讀。讀完內心相當平和。
评分好久沒念哲學的書瞭,大學的時候度過Epictetus的stoics書,覺得這個學派的人都是性冷淡,有自虐傾嚮。過瞭好幾年hedonism的生活之後纔發現,啊,原來stoicism纔是通往幸福感的源泉。
评分有點可愛的話嘮高湯。其實讀起來感覺挺年輕的,不像想象的年老而沉重。
