What springs from earth dissolves to earth again, and heaven-born things fly to their native seat.

In this flowing stream, then, on which there is no abiding, what is there of the things which hurry by on which a man would set a high price? It would be just as if a man should fall in love with one of the sparrows which fly by, but it has already passed out of sight.
Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius
Image
Your mind will take on the character of your most frequent thoughts: souls are dyed by thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Not to waste time on nonsense. Not to be taken in by conjurors and hoodoo artists with their talk about incantations and exorcism and all the rest of it. Not to be obsessed with quail-fighting or other crazes like that.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
There is nothing happens to any person but what was in his power to go through with.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Purge your mind of all aimless and idle thoughts, especially those that pry into the affairs of others or wish them ill.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
For outward show is a wonderful perverter of the reason.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
A man must stand erect, not be kept erect by others.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Everything is born from change. ...there is nothing nature loves more that to alter what exists and make new things like it. All that exists is the seed of what will emerge from it. You think the only seeds are the one that make plants and children? Go deeper.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
All things of the body stream away like a river, all things of the mind are dreams and delusion life is warfare, and a visit to a strange land the only lasting fame is oblivion.
Marcus Aurelius
