Stoics are the true hedonists, instead of maximising pleasure by being foolish. They maximise pleasure by finding it in the pain, Free yourself from all the labels and definitions of the world, and you'll be the wealthiest person on the planet.

Most of humanity inventions are just extracting and saving pleasure from something to something. Pleasure isn't evil, the act to achieve it could be.

One thing I'll recommend to anyone practising stoicism is read less, write more.
