"The Stoics ... thought we shouldn't value anything that can be taken from us by someone else. If we do so, we put ourselves in that other person's power. For you to overvalue your car, your stereo, your job, ... is in effect putting yourself in a position of fear .... one thing that can't be taken from you by somebody is your virtue. You can relinquish it, but no one can take it from you. ... You can't be corrupted unless you are willing to be corrupted."
