More quotes by Marcus Aurelius
We are born for cooperation
Marcus Aurelius
Failure to read what is happening in another's soul is not easily seen as a cause of unhappiness: but those who fail to attend the motions of their own soul are necessarily unhappy.
Marcus Aurelius
Put it out of the power of truth to give you an ill character. If anybody reports you not to be an honest man let your practice give him the lie.
Marcus Aurelius
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
Marcus Aurelius
What springs from earth dissolves to earth again, and heaven-born things fly to their native seat.
Marcus Aurelius
I will march on in the path of nature till my legs sink under me, and then I shall be at rest, and expire into that air which has given me my daily breath.
Marcus Aurelius
The stone that is thrown into the air is none the worse for falling down, and none the better for going up.
Marcus Aurelius
Think of the universal substance, of which thou has a very small portion and of universal time, of which a short and indivisible interval has been assigned to thee and of that which is fixed by destiny, and how small a part of it thou art
Marcus Aurelius
Look well into thyself there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look.
Marcus Aurelius
To live happily is an inward power of the soul.
Marcus Aurelius
A rational nature admits of nothing but what is serviceable to the rest of mankind.
Marcus Aurelius
If the gods care not for me and for my children, There is a reason for it.
Marcus Aurelius
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
The most complete revenge is not to imitate the aggressor.
Marcus Aurelius
Look back over the past, with its changing empires that rose and fell, and you can foresee the future, too.
Marcus Aurelius
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
Marcus Aurelius
Don't go on discussing what a good person should be. Just be one.
Marcus Aurelius
A great estate is a great disadvantage to those who do not know how to use it, for nothing is more common than to see wealthy persons live scandalously and miserably riches do them no service in order to virtue and happiness therefore 'tis precept and principle, not an estate, that makes a man good for something.
Marcus Aurelius
The main thing we were made for is to work with others.
Marcus Aurelius
A man should remove not only unnecessary acts, but also unnecessary thoughts, for then superfluous activity will not follow.
Marcus Aurelius
