The Moral Letter to Lucilius are a collection of 124 letters which were written by Seneca the Younger at the end of his life, during his retirement, and written after he had worked for the Emperor Nero for fifteen years. (These Moral Letters are the same letters which Tim Ferriss promotes in the Tao of Seneca)

Notes:
“no one can live happily who has regard to himself alone and transforms everything into a question of his own utility; you must live for your neighbour, if you would live for yourself”
“…how bitter and perplexed it is for those who have put their trust in opinion rather than in nature.”
“I should deem your games of logic to be of some avail in relieving men's burdens, if you could first show me what part of these burdens they will relieve”
