——塞涅卡(Lucius Annaeus Seneca，公元前4年－65年)，古罗马政治家、斯多葛派哲学家。
True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so, wants nothing.
真正的幸福是享受现在，而不是焦虑地依赖未来；不要用希望或恐惧来娱乐自己，而是要满足于我们所拥有的，这就足够了，因为这样的人什么也不缺。
Expecting is the greatest impediment to living. In anticipation of tomorrow, it loses today.

The greatest remedy for anger is delay.
排解愤怒的最好办法就是拖延时间
It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that things are difficult.
并不是因为事情难我们才不敢做, 而是因为我们不敢做事情才难。

If you really want to escape the things that harass you, what you’re needing is not to be in a different place but to be a different person.

Wealth is the slave of the wise. The master of the fool.

Until we have begun to go without them, we fail to realize how unnecessary many things are. We’ve been using them not because we needed them but because we had them.
直到我们开始放弃它们，我们才意识到有那么多并不需要的东西。我们使用它们不是因为我们需要它们，而是因为我们拥有它们。
It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor
