Stoic Philosophy

Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca on how to live.

Stoicism is the ancient philosophy that modern readers keep rediscovering: focus on what you control, accept what you cannot, act well regardless. Marcus Aurelius wrote the Meditations as private notes to himself; Epictetus's Enchiridion is a pocket manual; Seneca's letters are the warmest and most readable of the three.
