> How to speak to insufferable people?

When faced with insufferable people, it's important to focus on yourself and your own conduct. As Seneca said, "It is your conduct that you must hold in check; you must rouse what is languid in you, bind fast what has become relaxed, conquer what is obstinate, persecute your appetites, and the appetites of mankind, as much as you can".

You should also close your ears against evil talk and avoid being drawn into conversations that could lead you astray. As Seneca said, "Virtue, Philosophy, Justice this is a jargon of empty words. The only way to be happy is to do yourself well. To eat, drink, and spend your money is the only real life, the only way to remind yourself that you are mortal"
