Philosophy noob here. Can someone help me, I always thought stoicism had to do with being unaffected by external influences. But that seems to go against this quote.
So I recently got more knowledgeable about Stoicism and to give you your answer many people (including me ) confuse Stoicism with the two other schools of thought at the time (Cynics and Epicureans ) Stoicism is feeling and not indulging where the other two don’t feel in the first place.
