Subject: Re: Chris's stoicism.


Chris asked for a definition of stoic some time back - I apologise for
having postponed a reply: I simply meant that aspect of Epictetus which
recommends feeling nothing in the face of life's ups and downs because in
the eye of the wise they are of equal insignificance.
Er, Seasons's greetings,
Anthony.
