The Stoics said that money, like power, was neither good nor bad—that having it was not itself virtuous—but they also believed it was better to have than not, especially if it facilitated being able to act on your virtues, as Carter did, as Marcus did.

People will do what they’re going to do—cheat, abuse, hurt, act with injustice—but we’re not. We’re going to stay at it. We’re going to keep going. We’re going to be and do good.

Your potential, the absolute best you’re capable of—that’s the metric to measure yourself against. Your standards are. Winning is not enough. People can get lucky and win. People can be assholes and win. Anyone can win. But not everyone is the best possible version of themselves.
