It was Marcus Aurelius who said,
“This is what you deserve. You could be good today. But instead you choose tomorrow."

Don't allow your mind to fall into #lethargy, for once attention is relaxed, it isn't in your power to recover it at once; instead, #remember: through today’s negligence, your affairs will be in worse condition tomorrow.
Epictetus

Book IV Chapter XII
#vss365 #Stoa
A mind surrendered to #lethargy of indifference is no longer a mind—it's a stagnant pool. You must rouse w/ morning light: to sleep through hour of action is to die before your time.
Seneca the Younger

Reflecting on Letter XCIV
#vss365 #Stoa
"Acknowledge the #lethargy that creeps upon the soul when it seeks only pleasure; it is a numbing frost that prevents the warmth of virtue from taking root."
— Musonius Rufus. Lectures and Fragments. Translated by Cora E. Lutz, Yale University Press, 1947, Fragment XVIII.
#vss365 #Stoa
Ever at work on tasks at hand w/o #lethargy of distraction—the only way to remain man, not puppet of the senses. Wake up! Return to self! Now you're shaken from the lethargy of sleep, realize what troubled you were dreams.
Marcus Aurelius
Meditations
Translator George Long
Book VI § 31
#vss365 #Stoa
"You act like mortals in all that you fear, and like immortals in all that you desire; you are sunk in a #lethargy of the soul while the clock of fate ticks on."
— Seneca, Lucius Annaeus. Moral Essays. Translated by John W. Basore, Loeb Classical Library, 1932, p. 294.
#vss365 #Stoa
Just as the body becomes heavy & useless through a #lethargy of limbs, so the mind becomes clouded & dull when it refuses exercise of virtue. One must be sharp, attentive, & ever-moving to avoid stagnation of the spirit.
Musonius Rufus
Lectures & Fragments
Translator, Cora E. Lutz

#vss365 #Stoa
A man should always be upright, not be kept upright; for if he sinks into a #lethargy of the soul, he becomes a mere #carcass of a man, moving without #purpose and driven by the #winds of chance.
Marcus Aurelius

Er zijn meerdere redenen waarom we Baruch de #Spinoza een #Stoïcijnse denker kunnen noemen: zijn denkwereld komt in hoge mate overeen met dat van de denkers van de #Stoa.

How does discernment deal with itself? After all, is that where its essence lies? Everything else, whether or not it's determined by your choice, is just smoke and dust.

colourful dragon sculpture made of translucent materials, suspended from the ceiling in a modern indoor space (at the cultural center "Stoa" in east Helsinki). The dragon has bright blue scales, vivid red eyes, and large wings in shades of pink, yellow, and red.
At the cultural center "Stoa" - in East Helsinki - we just got a new tenant.
(Haven't got any info about the artist, maybe someone know more?)
