You've quoted a lot of Epictetus! I've haven't run across many people who even knew who he was.
His quotes are always great, a few of my favorites: "Only the educated are free." and " First, say to yourself what you would be, and then do what you have to do."
Hey, I like those, 'specially the second one.
