Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius
Image
He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.
Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius
Image
Short is the little which remains to thee of life. Live as on a mountain.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Gluttony and drunkenness have two evils attendant on them they make the carcass smart, as well as the pocket.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Observe always that everything is the result of a change, and get used to thinking that there is nothing Nature loves so well as to change existing forms and to make new ones like them.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Within ten days thou wilt seem a god to those to whom thou art now a beast and an ape, if thou wilt return to thy principles and the worship of reason.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.
Marcus Aurelius
