“Sickness is an impediment to the body, but not to the will unless the will wants to be impeded. Lameness is an impediment to the leg, but not to the will. If you tell yourself this at every occurrence, you will find the impediment is to something else but not to yourself.”

—Epictetus, Encheiridion 9 (arranged by Arrian) (tr. Long, A., 2018)
