🔖 About “The Golden Sayings”
Collected by Arrian, a devoted student of Epictetus, these sayings encapsulate the heart of Stoic ethics—self-control, resilience, clarity of thought, and alignment with nature. Epictetus teaches us to master what is within our control and to let go of the rest. These brief but powerful sayings are ideal for both deep study and casual meditation.

Ismail Gaspirali's The Muslims of Darürrahat translated by Çiğdem Pala Mull seems to be open-access on The Digital Press at the University of North Dakota.
