Light may earth's crumbling sand be laid on thee, that dogs may dig thy bones up easily
Marcus Aurelius

Keep in mind how fast things pass by and are gone - those that are now, and those to come. Existence flows past us like a river the what is in constant flux, the why has a thousand variations. Nothing is stable, not even what's right here. The infinity of past and future gapes before us - a chasm whose depths we cannot see.

Every instant of time... is a pinprick of eternity.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Live each day as if it be your last.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place, and this too will be swept away.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Time is a kind of river, an irresistible flood sweeping up men and events and carrying them headlong, one after the other, to the great sea of being.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The one thing worth living for is to keep one's soul pure.

He is a true fugitive who flies from reason.
Marcus Aurelius
