Spiritual progress is made through confronting death and calamity. — Instead of
averting your eyes from the painful events of life, look at them squarely and
contemplate them often. By facing the realities of death, infirmity, loss, and
disappointment, you free yourself of illusions and false hopes and you avoid
miserable, envious thoughts.
The Art of Living by Epictetus
