All is as thinking makes it so
Marcus Aurelius
And thou wilt give thyself relief, if thou doest every act of thy life as if it were the last.
Marcus Aurelius
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

Marcus Aurelius
In the morning when thou risest unwillingly, let this thought be present - I am rising to the work of a human being. Why then am I dissatisfied if I am going to do the things for which I exist and for which I was brought into the world?
Marcus Aurelius
Let no act be done without purpose.
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
Dig within. There lies the wellspring of good.
Marcus Aurelius
The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius
Anger cannot be dishonest.
Marcus Aurelius
Consider frequently the connection of all things in the universe and their relation to one another. For things are somehow implicated with one another, and all in a way friendly to one another.
Marcus Aurelius
