One of these days, I'm going to actually sit down and read through Juvenal's Satires[0]. I've read Plato's Republic and Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, but not any of the Roman classics.

I would skip and opt for Stoics:

"Don’t want the world to work like you want it to work. Love how it actually works and you will be happy."

Until you wake up one morning and realize that all the things you loved about how the world works have changed.
