I really enjoy the writings of the Stoic philosophers. If you enjoyed Seneca, you should check out Marcus Aurelius' Meditations[1] and Epictetus' Discourses[2]

- jwdunne 12y agoBecause of age of the writings, you can probably find free digital copies on Gutenberg.org. I'm sure that's how I got Meditations.
- untothebreach 12y agoGood idea. Edited to include them.
- jcd748 12y agoI just finished Aurelius' "Meditations" last month - my family has a small, leatherbound copy that was a gift to my great-grandfather for Christmas, 1924. I found it particularly resonant, incredible for a text that's almost two thousands years old.
