Stoic Week 2017, Tuesday Morning Text for Reflection
"Ethics has three branches. The first assigns to each thing its proper value and determines what it is
worth … The second deals with motives, and the third with actions. So the objectives of ethics are,
first, to enable you to judge the value of each thing; second, to enable you to have a well-adjusted
and controlled motive towards them; and, third, to enable you to achieve harmony between your
motive and your action so that you can be consistent in everything you do."
~ Seneca, Letters, 89.14
