“We should not have either a blunt knife or a freedom of speech which is ill-managed.”

Enchiridion • Epictetus

“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you. So act toward children, so toward a wife, so toward office, so toward wealth.”

The Enchiridion • Epictetus

“Reason is not measured by size or height, but by principle.”

Discourses • Epictetus

“She lacks the indefinable charm of weakness. It is the feet of clay that make the gold of the image precious.”

The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde

“What's in a name? That which we call a rose.”

Romeo and Juliet • William Shakespeare
