Who is not attracted by bright and pleasant children, to prattle, to creep, and to play with them?
EpictetusHe is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.
EpictetusIt 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.
Epictetus
