The Enchiridion by Epictetus, complete, enhanced with audiobook version of the text totaling 50 minutes, 49 seconds.

The things in our control are by nature free, unrestrained, unhindered; but those not in our control are weak, slavish, restrained, belonging to others. Remember, then, that if you suppose that things which are slavish by nature are also free, and that what belongs to others is your own, then you will be hindered.
