They are like\nthis because they can't tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of\ngood, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a\nnature related to my own – not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind,\nand possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one\ncan implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him.\nWe were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of\nteeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at\nsomeone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural.”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TIMES DISTRIBUTION PTE LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44877722550479,"sku":"9780008729684","price":25.07,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/5662\/3823\/files\/download_57e943f3-0422-40d2-b6ef-f8fb344cf6b9.jpg?v=1772443072","url":"https:\/\/popular.com.sg\/products\/365-lessons-from-the-stoics-transform-your-daily-life-using-the-stoics-wisdom-and-understanding","provider":"Popular Book Company Pte Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
