“When you run up against someone else’s shamelessness, ask yourself this: Is a world without shamelessness possible? No.
Then don’t ask the impossible.
There have to be shameless people in the world.
This is one of them.
The same for someone vicious or untrustworthy, or with any other defect.
Remembering that the whole world class has to exist will make you more tolerant of its members.” ~ Marcus Aurelius ~
“Men do not care how nobly they live, but only how long, although it is within the reach of every man to live nobly, but within no man’s power to live long. ~ Lucius Seneca ~
“Do not try to seem wise to others. If you want to live a wise life, live it on your own terms and in your own eyes.” ~ Epictetus ~
