By a tranquil mind I mean nothing else than a mind well ordered.
The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.
If any man despises me, that is his problem. My only concern is not doing or saying anything deserving of contempt.
Nothing befalls any man which he is not fitted to endure.
The act of dying is one of the acts of life.
People exist for one another.
