Epictetus
“What really frightens and dismays us is not external events themselves, but the way in which we think about them. It is not things that disturb us, but our interpretation of their significance.”
Epictetus

Darshan Singh
“I hear my silence talked of in every lane;
The suppression of a cry is itself a cry of pain.”
Darshan Singh
