I appreciate how the video emphasizes the value of self-reflection and continuous learning. Each quote serves as a thought-provoking prompt to examine our daily actions and cultivate virtues that lead to a more fulfilling life. It's a testament to the enduring relevance of Seneca's teachings in guiding us towards wisdom and inner peace.
Interesting, I thought just the opposite. Here we are in the 21st century and we know many things about nature and the universe, but we have forgotten what it is to truly live and what it means to be truly human. We have not progressed societally beyond the wisdom of the stoics, but we've digressed. All that realization takes is to stand any of our modern politicians up against the life of Marcus Aurelius.
The last is an apt observation. Though he would also be surprised, pleasantly I hope, that thanks to the process of discovery itself, he is still remembered.
"True happiness is to understand our duties towards God and man; 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 abundantly sufficient. "
It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters. We all have ups and downs. You can only fail if you choose to stay down. A small example: I took 3 years to start uploading videos to my TH-cam channel because I lost confidence due to a setback. If I had started uploading 3 years ago, who knows how successful it would be right now.
Marcus Aurelius said ( we humans love our selfs the most but we care more about others opinions about our selfs then our own ) it does take work one day at time it’s what I do !
His advice is #valuable, They seem to be #sensible, Life-road is easily #passable, As he makes power #double, He takes us out of #trouble, We no longer feel #feeble, Problems burst like #bubble, He is the most #honorable, He says things are #possible, He has made me #capable, I thank him by being #humble!

This kind of thoughts shaped European culture for 2000 years. And now we are ready to look at them as some kind of object of the past while we swim in cultural platitude. I want Europe back alive, fuck all this multy cultural shit and politically correct crap. This guy such as others, were pure gold and we waste time finsing reasons to do nothing
Love these just like all the rest but as im busy pondering and dissecting one i find particularly deep and meaningful.....several others whizz by god dammit! Haha
Maybe I am confusing all the books, but I just started reading Seneca and I am pretty sure ALOT of these did not come from Seneca because I remember reading them in Epictetus and Aurelius
Mmm.... I'm not sure that some of these are attributed to Seneca. Throw me to the wolves and I shall return leading the pack? Definitely not Seneca. Still inspiring video tho.
@@MrTrackman100 well, i could say something like "the burden of proof should be on you" but I know that quotes on the internet are often of vague origin anyways and are often attributed to the wrong person... Especially when the quote is of questionable origins, as previously stated. Seneca isn't around to say whether or not it is or isn't his quote and I would Hazard to say that 99% of the people on the internet probably aren't philosophy majors. But I will say this, this quote is also attributed to Susan Collins, you know the Romance / Thriller novelist... So there's that. There's also a good chance that it's origin isn't singular and that it's a conglomeration of many similar sayings developed over many years in a society and then made popular or endemic through its use in pop culture... I know at least one song that uses it... Throne by BMTH. But hey, it'd be cool if Seneca did say it. It's pretty badass. Lol
by the definitions of the words themselves, one can not ignore that which he is ignorant of. words that share an etymological ancestor, aren’t always synonyms.
Many comical memories come to mind. I remember as a little kid the first time my mom took to kindergarten. I was so scared because I thought the teachers were monsters. After three days I grew accustomed and even enjoyed it. I feared thunder was a roaring monster that would eat me . I also feared my nose would grow long if I told a lie😁. Remember when people wouldn't walk on the same road as an AIDS patient because we didn't know anything 😁?? Remember when people built bankers because they thought the world would end in 2000 then 2012. Some psychos like heaven's gate got people to kill themselves and others. Remember when people thought alien ships were abducting people? Remember the panic buying recently, mostly tissue paper 😁?

Powerful sentences that makes us rethink more about our lives within.
The reunion of the thinkers and of the bests patients of this world has to be protected.
Last quote proved their wisdom.
Do you mean that the quotes were covered over by adverts?

Ouw yes he is so true!
Seneca had so many brilliant ideas that I need to take the time to think about and relate to myself. Great video, thank you.
Literally had tears before the 2 min mark
When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves
It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that things are difficult.

Wonderful video, Seneca is a great philosopher.
crazy how theyre words are so timeless
Inspiring stuff for real. Makes me want to rep twice my PR every time I step into the gym. Makes me want to challenge myself and my character everyday

Awesome... Mesmerizing video
Last quote! Chills!
Incredible. I hope to inspire with my music the way videos like this inspire me to make it. Thank you
So many forgotten words. Spread them like seeds
Beautifully fitting voice and music to truly pivotal information
Why do they always portray ancient in such a deep Morgan freeman-esque voice?
@@stsk7 we probably are wired to trust information of someone with such a voice, such voice likely symbolizes experience and knowledge to us
@@stsk7 I believe the 'voice' is Christopher Lee. He was Saruman in the LOTOR trilogy. His life could be it's own movie.
Damn it with the piano background music in all these videos!
Thankyou for your Time And Energy God Bless 💎🇬🇧💎
Life is a very long dream. It stops a moment, before death.
According to him, he emphasizes on quality of life not the number of years lived.
Lopamudra Ray And that is the way it ought to be, quality ( happiness) not quantity.

His voice touches me.
Life well lived, is long enough. In other words, not how long but how good it is, is what matters.
Wonderful. Thank you
I really really enjoy this stoic thinking way of looking forward to it
Ignorance is the cause of fear--nice!
Thank you👊
Very Nice awareness .
very inspiring.. thank you
Thanx so much
C'est bien dit.
Thank you..
Really Great !
Truly amazing =]
Some of the scenes are good some a bit dorky.Good to be discerning. Thank you for the upload.very nice.
AWESOME~ CHANNEL~
“Throw me to the wolves and I will return leading the pack.”
Some people make things happen. Some people watch things happen. And then there are those who wonder, 'What the hell just happened?
7:25 Damn, this guy literally described western philosophy in just one sentence
Victor Luigi correct
And we think we are smarter than the ancients... Think again my friend.
Can you keep 5-10 sec after each quote pausing on screen just to ponder about it its too much to take too fast
Pause it.
You also risk being eaten by polar bear...so true.
by far my most viewed video of yours
Facts 💯
This kind of thoughts shaped European culture for 2000 years. And now we are ready to look at them as some kind of object of the past while we swim in cultural platitude.

These millennials don't realize their standing on the shouldets of Giants
thanks for this inspiring video. suggestion: what about Epicurus and Chuang Tue next time? it'll be great!
Love these just like all the rest but as im busy pondering and dissecting one i find particularly deep and meaningful.....several others whizz by god dammit! Haha
It costs nothing to hit the pause button and to reflect for a moment.
nice
Everything we can Experience today with Lightning speed only means more Focus on Past Quotes
Maybe I am confusing all the books, but I just started reading Seneca and I am pretty sure ALOT of these did not come from Seneca because I remember reading them in Epictetus and Aurelius
You good for the the soul 😉 and mind
Wow Seneca saw the future
same way you see bump in a road, you just nead a right understandings, and you'l see the future
Nice voice work.
Inspired by Christopher Lee?
Hey are all these quotes from a book? If so what is the book called.
What exactly this particular borrtex tract is on this video? Can anyone help me?
Why you use same quotes for different philosophers?!
Been reading much about the stoic philosophers. All this wisdom, whatever happened to Rome and Greece?
same, as happening now, the diference that rock was replaced by concrete, and theter by television
plato is a father to the fatherless
You sound like Christopher Lee.
Is this Christopher Lee talking ?

"No man is more unhappy then he who never faces adversity. For he is not permitted to prove himeself" Seneca. Forgot that one, just saying.

"Ignorance is the cause of fear"?
I thought you need to ignore for you to not get affected?
by ignorance he means lack of information/knowledge
