Some Stoic Source ideas
Nine passages on Stoicism from Eusebius, Plutarch, Diogenes Laertius, Aetius, and Stobaeus.

"The life of virtue is the life in accordance with nature. Since for the Stoic nature is rational and perfect, the ethical life is a life lived in accordance with the rational order of things.'Do not seek to have events happen as you want them to, but instead want them to happen as they do happen, and your life will go well' (Handbook, ch. 8)."
-- Ecole Initiative Stoicism
