Stoic 6 Pack ; pg.153
Discourses of Epictetus
A flute, lyre, Horse, and Dog
Are preserved when they keep their promise
A (wo)man also in like manner is preserved
By delivering on their promise
Each (wo)man is improved and preserved
By corresponding acts
Carpenter by Carpentry, Grammarian by acts of grammar
Modest action preserves modest (wo)man
Fidelity preserves the faithful (wo)man
So be not satisfied with Learning only
Add your practice to it!
Put into practice the right opinion
Discourse alone is not enough
