More quotes by Marcus Aurelius
If any man despises me, that is his problem. My only concern is not doing or saying anything deserving of contempt.
Marcus Aurelius
Everything is mere opinion.
Marcus Aurelius
Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
Marcus Aurelius
Because other people are fools, must you be so too?
Marcus Aurelius
Waste not the remnant of thy life in those imaginations touching other folk, whereby thou contributest not to the common weal.
Marcus Aurelius
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
Men seek out retreats for themselves in the country, by the seaside, on the moutains . . . But all this is unphilosophical to the last degree . . . when thou canst at a moment's notice retire into thyself.
Marcus Aurelius
Very little is needed to make a happy life it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
Marcus Aurelius
No one loses any other life than the one he now lives, nor does one live any other life than that which he will lose.
Marcus Aurelius
Everything is ephemeral, both that which remembers and that which is remembered.
Marcus Aurelius
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
Marcus Aurelius
Look at everything that exists, and observe that it is already in dissolution and in change, and as it were putrefaction or dispersion, or that everything is so constituted by nature as to die.
Marcus Aurelius
All things are changing and thou thyself art in continuous mutation and in a manner in continuous destruction and the whole universe to.
Marcus Aurelius
A rational nature admits of nothing but what is serviceable to the rest of mankind.
Marcus Aurelius
If you are pained by any external thing, it is not this thing that disturbs you, but your own judgment about it. It is in your power to erase this judgment about it. If anything in your own nature gives you pain, you are who hinders you from correcting your opinion.
Marcus Aurelius
Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also.
Marcus Aurelius
I search after truth, by which man never yet was harmed.
Marcus Aurelius
... Allow yourself a space of quiet, wherein you can add to your knowledge of the Good and learn to curb your restlessness. Guard also against another kind of error: the folly of those who weary their days in much business, but lack any aim on which their whole effort, nay, their whole thought, is focused.
Marcus Aurelius
When you find an unwillingness to rise early in the morning, endeavor to rouse your faculties, and act up to your kind, and consider that you have to do the business of a man and that action is both beneficial and the end of your being.
Marcus Aurelius
Alexander the Great and his mule driver both died and the same thing happened to both.
Marcus Aurelius
