Em seu novo livro sobre as virtudes estoicas, Ryan Holiday apresenta a justiça como a virtude que deve orientar quem escolhemos ser. Na antiguidade, tudo o que valesse a pena almejar e conquistar decorria de um forte senso de justiça - ou do comprometimento do indivíduo em fazer o certo, não importava o quão difícil fosse.

Break free of your destructive relationship with money, and learn how money can make you happy. Our relationship with money is one that lasts a lifetime. It can be as important as family life, as competitive as work, and as exciting and secretive as love. Yet books about money tend to take one of two routes: a) how to get more, or b) how to deal with less. This book turns these questions upside down, and looks not at money itself, but at the way we view it. How does money drive us? How does it frighten us?

This audiobook aims to encourage a person's own thinking, not to influence it. The author believes the extensions of thought from any human being are so profuse, they are countless. Normally, there is no cohesiveness of thought. We are consistent neither in our thinking nor in our behavior. We are not wholly integrated persons and cannot, therefore, firmly and positively achieve inner growth. Having your own personal philosophy will give you personal unity. It will allow you to maximize your potential. A person with a philosophy is a mover; without it, one floats and is moved.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca, known as Seneca the Younger (c. 4 BC - AD 65), is the author of On the Shortness of Life (c. 49 AD).
