"You are not your body and hair-style, but your capacity for choosing well. If your choices are beautiful, so too will you be."
~ Epictetus, Discourses, 3.1.39b-40a
You are your power to choose. A powerful, simple statement of Stoic philosophy: you are your rational capacity for choice, and nothing else - not your body or hair, not your clothes, not your possessions, not your titles and occupations. You are the chooser. Choose well.
