In school i translated parts of "de vita beata" and its content helped me trough my edgy teenage years. I wouldn't call myself a stoic now but it got me interested in philosophy and influenced my ethics.

>The time will come when diligent research over long periods will bring to light things which now lie hidden. A single lifetime, even though entirely devoted to the sky, would not be enough for the investigation of so vast a subject... And so this knowledge will be unfolded only through long successive ages. There will come a time when our descendants will be amazed that we did not know things that are so plain to them... Many discoveries are reserved for ages still to come, when memory of us will have been effaced.
― Seneca, Natural Questions

Do you think we are an intelligent species? Or are we nothing in comparison to the potential for organic life such as ourselves, and we're just trapped in an evolutionary local maximum with respect to intelligence?
