Recalling the figure of Cato the Younger, Seneca argues that Cato as a wise person suffered neither injury nor insult.

In chapter 5 Seneca distinguishes between contumelia (insults) and iniuria (injuries).

'On Anger' is one of Seneca's most important essays. At some length he investigates the nature of anger: how and why it emerges, the effect it has on the individual and those to whom it is directed, and how to manage it and prevent it even from arising. For, Seneca considers, anger simply serves no purpose - it does not bring courage in war, prevent others misbehaving or punish miscreants. In short it has a negative effect on all.
