Description:
Timeless wisdom on controlling anger in personal life and politics from the Roman Stoic philosopher and statesman Seneca
In his essay On Anger (De Ira), the Roman Stoic thinker Seneca (c. 4 BC-65 AD) argues that anger is the most destructive passion: 'No plague has cost the human race more dear.' This was proved by his own life, which he barely preserved under one wrathful emperor, Caligula, and lost under a second, Nero. This splendid new translation of essential selections from On Anger, presented with an enlightening introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, offers readers a timeless guide to avoiding and managing anger. It vividly illustrates why the emotion is so dangerous and why controlling it would bring vast benefits to individuals and society.
Drawing on his great arsenal of rhetoric, including historical examples (especially from Caligula's horrific reign), anecdotes, quips, and soaring flights of eloquence, Seneca builds his case against anger with mounting intensity. Like a fire-and-brimstone preacher, he paints a grim picture of the moral perils to which anger exposes us, tracing nearly all the world's evils to this one toxic source. But he then uplifts us with a beatific vision of the alternate path, a path of forgiveness and compassion that resonates with Christian and Buddhist ethics.
Seneca's thoughts on anger have never been more relevant than today, when uncivil discourse has increasingly infected public debate. Whether seeking personal growth or political renewal, readers will find, in Seneca's wisdom, a valuable antidote to the ills of an angry

Best sneakers on amazon!
Size: 10.5, Color: White/Light Blue
Best sneakers on amazon ever. I bought them on sale for around $45 and do not regret it at all. They are of superior quality and fit amazing. Comfy to wear all day and seem like they are going to last quite awhile. Very easy to clean as well.

Stylish, Durable, and a great bang for your buck!
Size: 8, Color: White/Navy
This is my second time buying these shoes, just in a different color. These are my favorite going out shoes for comfort, look, and overall quality. They look very clean and are great for the price! Lots of compliments on these shoes!

Good fit but Paper Thin Insoles
Size: 9.5, Color: White/Team Red
Seems like a good shoe so far and looks just like the product images. The sizing is 100% accurate i got a 9.5 and it fit perfectly. Taking a star off for the terribly paper thin insoles in came in as i had to immediately replace those with some third party memory foam insoles. Definitely needs more cushioning out of the box. For the money though i recommend them.

Made well and the purple color is true to purple ...
Made well and the purple color is true to purple. They are too big for my big 3 year old. Extra Small would fit a 5 year old perfectly I think.

Nice sleep shorts for a girl.
These worked out very well as sleep shorts for a girl. It is hard to find shirts that are not so short for girls and the purple color was well liked. These can be used more then just boys or sports or working out in the gym. They fit a 12 year old well (the size i ordered). The color looks like a nice bright (not too bright) purple.
