More quotes by Marcus Aurelius

Image
In the life of a man, his time is but a moment, his being an incessant flux, his sense a dim rushlight, his body a prey of worms, his soul an unquiet eddy, his fortune dark, his fame doubtful. In short, all that is body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Never esteem anything as of advantage to you that will make you break your word or lose your self-respect.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Everything is born from change. ...there is nothing nature loves more that to alter what exists and make new things like it. All that exists is the seed of what will emerge from it. You think the only seeds are the one that make plants and children? Go deeper.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The nature of the All moved to make the universe.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
When you find an unwillingness to rise early in the morning, endeavor to rouse your faculties, and act up to your kind, and consider that you have to do the business of a man and that action is both beneficial and the end of your being.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The substance of the universe is obedient and compliant and the reason which governs it has in itself no cause for doing evil, for it has no malice, nor does it do evil to anything, nor is anything harmed by it. But all things are made and perfected according to this reason.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Look back over the past, with its changing empires that rose and fell, and you can foresee the future, too.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Time is like a river made up of the events which happen, and a violent stream for as soon as a thing has been seen, it is carried away, and another comes in its place, and this will be carried away too.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
You are making an inopportune rejection of what Nature has given you today, if all your mind is set on what men will say of you tomorrow.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
It is a shame for the soul to be first to give way in this life, when thy body does not give way.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The most complete revenge is not to imitate the aggressor.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
How powerful is man! He is able to do all that God wishes him to do. He is able to accept all that God sends upon him.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
From Apollonius I learned freedom of will and undeviating steadiness of purpose and to look to nothing else, not even for a moment, except to reason.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Remember: Matter: how tiny your share of it. Time: how brief and fleeting your allotment of it. Fate: how small a role you play in it.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
There is but one thing of real value - to cultivate truth and justice, and to live without anger in the midst of lying and unjust men.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
And thou wilt give thyself relief, if thou doest every act of thy life as if it were the last.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The lot assigned to every man is suited to him, and suits him to itself.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Everything harmonizes with me, which is harmonious to thee, o Universe. Nothing for me is too early or too late, which is in due time for thee.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Why should we feel anger at the world? As if the world would notice?
Marcus Aurelius
