"This concise book provides the reader with three letters from Stoic philosopher Seneca, written over 2000 years ago.
The insight that remains poingant throught is that of temperance, frugality and moderation. These three key Stoic attributes are discussed in various forms, from a sorrowful mother, to an over-ambitios statesman.
"a handful of seneca quotations included in griswold's FORGIVENESS (i think i reviewed it earlier this year) convinced me that it was some kind of insane mistake that i'd never read any of (or even really heard of) the original texts. the works presented in this book don't even come close to living up to those brief quotations (which were mostly on the topics of anger, resentment, responsibility). i suppose that a book of important little platitudes is what i expected from a tiny book in a "great ideas" series. it's probably worth reading for daily inspiration and focus or something, but not for philosophy. SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT SENECA I SHOULD BE READING!"
""We must be especially careful in choosing people, and deciding whether they are worth devoting a part of our lives to them, whether the sacrifice of our time makes a difference to them. For some people actually charge us for our services to them.""
