June 24th Reading from The Daily Stoic - The Truly Educated Aren't Quarrelsome


"The beautiful and good person neither fights with anyone nor, as much as they are able, permits others to fight . . . this is the meaning of getting an education - learning what is your own affair and what is not. If a person carries themselves so, where is there any room for fighting?"

~ Epictetus, Discourses, 4.5.1; 7b-8a
