lol seriously why not by the source?

That's like buying a coke when you just want bottled water.

Why not looking/understanding before judging?

I like reading source material.

the "notable for marketing stoic philosophy in the form of books" was enough of a determination for me. Also saw his photograph.

each to their own.

Valid point, but fact is he brought Stoic Philosophy to million of people. Without him 99% would not even know who the f* Marcus Aurelius was or would not have read Meditations. What is your contribution beside reading the source material?

Writing a book requires tremendous time and effort and to me it’s just funny that people who feel superior by just reading a damn diary and then judging someone who wrote multiple books about the topic and try to bring the philosophy in an understandable modern way to the masses.
