It is the part of an uneducated person to blame others where he himself fares ill; to blame himself is the part of one whose education has begun; to blame neither another nor his own self is the part of one whose education is already complete.
EpictetusBe careful to leave your sons well instructed rather than rich, for the hopes of the instructed are better than the wealth of the ignorant.
EpictetusIf a person had delivered up your body to some passer-by, you would certainly be angry. And do you feel no shame in delivering up your own mind to any reviler, to be disconcerted and confounded?
Epictetus
