More quotes by 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
Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.
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
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
Things that have a common quality ever quickly seek their kind.
Marcus Aurelius
Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back.
Marcus Aurelius
If you are pained by any external thing, it is not this that disturbs you, but your own judgment about it.
Marcus Aurelius
If you are pained by external things, it is not they that disturb you, but your own judgement of them. And it is in your power to wipe out that judgement now.
Marcus Aurelius
Love the people with whom fate brings you together
Marcus Aurelius
Do not waste what remains of your life in speculating about your neighbors, unless with a view to some mutual benefit. To wonder what so-and-so is doing and why, or what he is saying, or thinking, or scheming -- in a word, anything that distracts you from fidelity to the ruler within you -- means a loss of opportunity for some other task.
Marcus Aurelius
Be not disgusted, nor discouraged, nor dissatisfied, if thou dost not succeed in doing everything according to right principles but when thou bast failed, return back again, and be content if the greater part of what thou doest is consistent with man's nature, and love this to which thou returnest
Marcus Aurelius
Thou sufferest justly: for thou choosest rather to become good to-morrow than to be good to-day.
Marcus Aurelius
The whole universe is change and life itself is but what you deem it
Marcus Aurelius
Nature set a limit on sleep - as it did on eating and drinking. And youre over the limit. But not of working. There youre still below your quota. You dont love yourself enough. Or youd love your nature too and what it demands of you. People who love what they do wear themselves down doing it. They even forget to wash and eat.
Marcus Aurelius
Gluttony and drunkenness have two evils attendant on them they make the carcass smart, as well as the pocket.
Marcus Aurelius
Death, like birth, is one of nature's mysteries, the combining of primal elements and dissolving of the same into the same.
Marcus Aurelius
Observe constantly that all things take place by change.
Marcus Aurelius
When you are offended at anyone's fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. By attending to them, you will forget your anger and learn to live wisely.
Marcus Aurelius
Cinna wishes to seem poor, and is poor
Marcus Aurelius
Live your life as if you are ready to say goodbye to it at any moment, as if the time left for you were some pleasant surprise.
Marcus Aurelius
