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.

Epictetus, Golden Sayings 181
When Xanthippe was chiding Socrates for making scanty preparation for entertaining his friends, he answered:
“If they are friends of ours they will not care for that; if they are not, we shall care nothing for them!”
