“When you do anything from a clear judgment that it ought to be done, never shun being seen to do it, even though the world should make a wrong supposition about it; for, if you don’t act right, shun the action itself; but, if you do, why are you afraid of those who censure you wrongly?”
– Epictetus, The Enchiridion
