More From Epictetus
- "Unless we place our religion and our treasure in the same thing, religion will always be sacrificed."
- "No greater thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen."
- "God has entrusted me with myself."
More In Freedom
- "I think that we could be more careful about what we’re saying to young women in terms of their expectations. It’s unrealistic to expect people to always be in designer clothes. Girls growing up deserve more freedom in how they look and how they feel about how they look."― Emily Procter
- "None can love freedom heartily, but good men; the rest love not freedom, but licence."― John Milton
- "A just laicism allows religious freedom. The state does not impose religion but rather gives space to religions with a responsibility toward civil society, and therefore it allows these religions to be factors in building up society."― Joseph Ratzinger
