More quotes by Marcus Aurelius
When you have been compelled by circumstances to be disturbed in any manner, quickly return to yourself, and do not continue out of tune longer than the compulsion lasts. You will have increasing control over your own harmony by continually returning to it.
Marcus Aurelius
Observe constantly that all things take place by change.
Marcus Aurelius
Body. Soul. Mind. Sensations: the body. Desires: the soul. Reasoning: the mind.
Marcus Aurelius
There is a limit circumscribed to your time – if you do not use it to clear away your clouds, it will be gone, and you will be gone, and the opportunity will not return
Marcus Aurelius
In the same degree in which a man's mind is nearer to freedom from all passion, in the same degree also is it nearer to strength.
Marcus Aurelius
Observe the movements of the stars as if you were running their courses with them, and let your mind constantly dwell on the changes of the elements into each other. Such imaginings wash away the filth of life on the ground.
Marcus Aurelius
My only fear is doing something contrary to human nature - the wrong thing, the wrong way, or at the wrong time.
Marcus Aurelius
Short is the little which remains to thee of life. Live as on a mountain.
Marcus Aurelius
The passing minute is every man's equal possession but what has once gone by is not ours.
Marcus Aurelius
Every living organism is fulfilled when it follows the right path for its own nature.
Marcus Aurelius
Search men's governing principles, and consider the wise, what they shun and what they cleave to.
Marcus Aurelius
Never forget that the universe is a single living organism possessed of one substance and one soul, holding all things suspended in a single consciousness and creating all things with a single purpose that they might work together spinning and weaving and knotting whatever comes to pass.
Marcus Aurelius
Withdraw to the untroubled quietude deep within the soul, and refresh yourself.
Marcus Aurelius
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
Marcus Aurelius
We are born for synergy, just like the feet, just like the hands, just like the eyes, just like the rows of upper and lower teeth. Working against each other is unnatural, and being annoyed and turning one's back is counterproductive.
Marcus Aurelius
Were you to live three thousand years, or even thirty thousand, remember that the sole life which a man can lose is that which he is living at the moment and furthermore, that he can have no other life except the one he loses.
Marcus Aurelius
The body of an actor can be either his best friend or his worst enemy.
Marcus Aurelius
Everything is interwoven, and the web is holy none of its parts are unconnected. They are composed harmoniously, and together - they compose the world.
Marcus Aurelius
But if we judge only those things which are in our power to be good or bad, there remains no reason either for finding fault with God or standing in a hostile attitude to man.
Marcus Aurelius
Leave the wrong done by another where the wrong arose.
Marcus Aurelius
