Building upon many years of privately shared thoughts on the real benefits of Stoic Philosophy, Liam Milburn eventually published a selection of Stoic passages that had helped him to live well. They were accompanied by some of his own personal reflections. This blog hopes to continue his mission of encouraging the wisdom of Stoicism in the exercise of everyday life. All the reflections are taken from his notes, from late 1992 to early 2017.

Sayings of Ramakrishna 242
The Hindu almanacs contain predictions of the annual rainfall. But squeeze the book, and not a drop of water will be got out of it.
So also many good sayings are to be found in books, but merely reading them will not make one religious. One has to practice the virtues taught therein.
