Since you asked about philosophy, I recommend Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. It's essentially the personal journal of the last good emperor of ancient Rome. It's full of little blurbs of how he dealt with events and encounters with people. It's extremely fun to read knowing you're peeking into a book never intended to be published for others to see.

Oooooo your last sentence makes this book sound extra juicy. I love me some juicy non-fiction. Memoirs are my favorite. 😈

Yeah that looks like one of the translations of it. Im not sure how these ancient text books really work, but I guess they read differently depending on who translates the text. This is the one I was recommended: amazon.com/dp/0812968255/ref=cm_sw...
