"Zeno of Citium (c. 334 BC – c. 262 BC) was a Hellenistic philosopher from Citium. Zeno was the founder of the Stoic school of philosophy, which he taught in Athens from about 300 BC.

Stoicism flourished as one of the major schools of philosophy from the Hellenistic period through to the Roman era.

This philosophy was designed to shape the human spirit so that it becomes resilient, happy, virtuous, and wise, as a consequence of which they evolve into better individuals possessing great strength of mind and soul. Stoicism and its principles equip human beings to wade through the otherwise ugly and most challenging river of life with a composed mind and a calm heart.
