"We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality." - Seneca

"We should not wait for the misfortunes to happen and then begin to think what we shall do, but we should anticipate them, and have our plans ready for them." - Epictetus

Amor fati, the love of fate, is one of the most powerful and transformative concepts in the Stoic philosophy. It's the idea that we should love and accept our fate, whatever it may be, and find joy and meaning in it. It's about embracing the present moment and making the most of the life we have been given, rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.
