Quote by Epictetus

A ship should not ride on a single anchor, nor life on a single hope.


A ship should not ride on a single anchor, nor life on a sin

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of having multiple sources of stability and optimism in life. Similar to how a ship cannot solely rely on one anchor to stay secure, our lives should not rely solely on one hope or expectation. It encourages us to have multiple support systems, aspirations, and possibilities to anchor ourselves. By diversifying our hopes and embracing the unpredictability of life, we can navigate challenges more effectively and find resilience in the face of uncertainty.
