About
Why we share A Stoic Says
We created A Stoic Says to make Stoic wisdom as easy to reach as the morning headlines. Every dispatch pairs a current opinion piece with a grounded reflection so readers can practice perspective before reacting.
Perspective for today
The world rarely pauses, but Stoicism teaches that we can. Each entry is an invitation to breathe, examine what is in our control, and respond with virtue even when the news feels chaotic. We want the experience to feel like a trusted friend who helps you stay steady.
Free and welcoming
A Stoic Says is free to read and explore. Share it with friends, students, or anyone who might benefit from a calmer lens on current events. We are committed to keeping the archive accessible without paywalls or popups so learning stays frictionless.
A living classroom
Stoicism is best learned through practice, so we highlight modern dilemmas and pair them with timeless teachings. Use the site to spark journaling, classroom debates, or quiet reflection— however you engage, the goal is to cultivate wisdom and resilience together.
Meet the Stoics
Dive into Stoics for concise biographies of Zeno, Cleanthes, Chrysippus, Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more. Each profile connects their life stories to the laws we highlight so you can see how real philosophers lived their principles. It is a quick reference guide whenever you need a mentor-on-demand.
Walk the Stoic Path
The Stoic Path is our 14-part curriculum that pairs every Stoic Law with longform lessons, exercises, and hero artwork. Follow the intro for context, then move chapter by chapter to integrate control, emotional mastery, voluntary hardship, and civic virtue into your life. It is the best starting point if you want structured Stoic training.
