TEXT: Discourses

There is one path alone that leads to happiness - and keep this thought at hand morning, noon, and night - it is to renounce any claim to anything that lies outside the sphere of choice, to regard nothing as being your own, to surrender everything to the diety, to fortune […] and to devote yourself to one thing only - that which is your own.
