The Stoic's Bookshelf

Marcus Aurelius at dawn. Epictetus in chains. Seneca writing letters he knows will outlast him. Boethius in prison. Then east: Laozi and the Buddha. Back west through Pascal, Emerson, Thoreau. Frankl in Auschwitz finding meaning anyway. Weil finding God through suffering. Rilke telling a young man to be patient. Buber saying the whole thing is about relation.
