More From Epictetus

Explain! tell a man to explain how he dropped into hell! explain my preference! i never had a preference for her, any more than i have a preference for breathing. no other woman exists by the side of her. i would rather touch her hand if it were dead, than i would touch any other woman's living.

And dieting, i discovered, was another form of disordered eating, just as anorexia and bulimia similarly disrupt the natural order of eating. "ordered" eating is the practice of eating when you are hungry and ceasing to eat when your brain sends the signal that your stomach is full. ... all people who live their lives on a diet are suffering. if you can accept your natural body weight and not force it to beneath your body's natural, healthy weight, then you can live your life free of dieting, of restriction, of feeling guilty every time you eat a slice of your kid's birthday cake.

Not just any talk is conversation; not any talk raises consciousness. good conversation has an edge: it opens your eyes to something, quickens your ears. and good conversation reverberates: it keeps on talking in your mind later in the day; the next day, you find yourself still conversing with what was said. that reverberation afterward is the very raising of consciousness; your mind's been moved. you are at another level with your reflections.

Whether you and i and a few others will renew the world some day remains to be seen. but within ourselves we must renew it each day.
Each Day World Remains
Sometimes i think marriage licenses should be like driver's licenses. they expire after a number of years, and in order to keep going you have to renew. wouldn't that be kind of genius? it would force you both to look at the relationship, and if it's not working, the marriage would expire so you could go on your merry way, or on the positive side of it, you could look at each other and say we really want to renew. what a way to keep it fresh!!

And we will be ready, at the end of every day will be ready, will not say no to anything, will try to stay awake while everyone is sleeping, will not sleep, will make the shoes with the elves, will breathe deeply all the time, breathe in all the air full of glass and nails and blood, will breathe it and drink it, so rich, so when it comes we will not be angry, will be content, tired enough to go, gratefully, will shake hands with everyone, bye, bye, and then pack a bag, some snacks, and go to the volcano.
