ANECDOTE

Stoic Virtues and Hercules

  • The four Stoic virtues—courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom—are tied to the legend of Hercules.
  • Hercules chose a life of virtue over a life of ease, shaping his character into that of a god.
  • These virtues serve as a compass, guiding our actions rather than just beliefs.
  • Virtue is demonstrated through action, not just words or thoughts.
  • The next book in the series explores wisdom.
