"To the Stoic, the greatest injury that can be inflicted on a person is administered by himself when he destroys the good man within him. For the non-Stoics, almost all great injuries are based on deprivations of 'things' controlled by external persons or forces. To a Stoic, there is no such things as being a 'victim'; you can only be a 'victim' of yourself." - James Stockdale, Thoughts of a Philosophical Fighter Pilot
