Epictetus, Golden Sayings 48


This is the reason why Socrates, when reminded that he should prepare for his trial, answered: "Do you not think that I have been preparing for it all my life?" 

"In what way?"

"I have maintained that which in me lay!"

"How so?" 

"I have never, secretly or openly, done a wrong unto any."
