The ancient philosopher Epicurus offered a timeless reminder: true wealth is not about having more, but about needing less. Today's Stoic Quote of the Day comes from Epicurus, who said, “The wealth required by nature is limited and is easy to procure; but the wealth required by vain ideals extends to infinity.”
Although Epicurus is generally associated with Epicurean philosophy rather than Stoicism, many of his ideas about simplicity, self-control and contentment overlap with Stoic teachings and continue to inspire modern readers.
