Seneca : Letters from a Stoic : pg.54
Regulate your character such that
Spirit within feels neither loss nor gain
remains same, no matter how things fall out
A spirit like that , if heaped with worldly goods
rises supreme to it
A spirit like that, if chance has stripped them of wealth
is not impaired
Seneca
"renew thyself eachday" An engraving found in bathtub of King Thich NhatThang
