A new view, for me:
All the same, if you ask me what the human good is, I can offer you no other reply than to say that it lies in a certain quality of choice.
Epictetus, Handbook 1.9(18).
That’s dense. How you choose = the essence of goodness?
I’m dropping this quote here because I want to return to it and uncover meaning that is currently inaccessible to me.
