Happiness and freedom begin with a clear understanding of one principle. Some things are within your control. And some things are not.

There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power or our will.

Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.

He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at

Only the educated are free.

Try to enjoy the great festival of life.

Freedom is the only worthy goal in life. It is won by disregarding things that lie beyond our control

Just keep in mind: the more we value things outside our control, the less control we have.

First learn the meaning of what you say, and then speak.

Seek not the good in external things; seek it in yourselves.

Man is not worried by real problems so much as by his imagined anxieties about real problems.

Don’t explain your philosophy. Embody it.

The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths.

First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.

It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.

If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.

We should always be asking ourselves - is this something that is, or is not, in my control?

Do not seek for things to happen the way you want them to; rather, wish that what happens happen the way it happens: then you will be happy.

Another person will not hurt you without your cooperation. You are hurt the moment you believe yourself to be.

You are a little soul carrying around a corpse.

Demand not that things happen as you wish, but wish them to happen as they do, and you will go on well.

for your part, do not desire to be a general, or a senator, or a consul, but to be free; and the only way to this is a disregard of things which lie not within our own power.

Any person capable of angering you becomes your master; he can anger you only when you permit yourself to be disturbed by him.

No man is free who is not master of himself.

The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.

Demand not that things happen as you wish, but wish them to happen as they do, and you will go on well.

The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths.

It is better to do wrong seldom and to own it, and to act right for the most part, than seldom to admit that you have done wrong and to do wrong often.
