“You are your own brand”

“All these philosophies(Stoicism,Epicureanism, Pyrronism)have a common failing. They imagine life can be ordered by human reason. Either the mind can devise a way of life that is secure from loss ,or else it can control the emotions so that it can withstand any loss. In fact ,neither how we live nor the emotions we feel can be controlled in this way. Our lives are shaped by chance and our emotions by the body.Much of human life -and much of philosophy - is an attempt to divert ourselves from this fact.”

“You see you need to have fear in order to live, to achieve. We are born in this world and live because we fear death. We earn money because we fear being poor. We try everything we can so we can have those two lines cross each other and the fear of it, not crossing makes us try harder said Thomas.”

“From the point of view of the imminence of death, one thing counts, and one alone: to strive always to have the essential rules of life present in one’s mind, and to keep placing oneself in the fundamental disposition of the philosopher, which consists essentially in controlling one’s inner discourse, in doing only that which is of benefit to the human community, and in accepting the events brought to us by the course of the Nature of the All.”
