More quotes by Marcus Aurelius
The most complete revenge is not to imitate the aggressor.
Marcus Aurelius
He does not write at all whose poems no man reads
Marcus Aurelius
Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back.
Marcus Aurelius
Pray look upon the plants and birds, the ants, spiders, and bees, and you will see them all exerting their nature, and busy in their station. Pray, shall not a man act like a man?
Marcus Aurelius
The constant recollection of death is the test of human conduct.
Marcus Aurelius
Art thou angry with him whose armpits stink? Art thou angry with him whose mouth smells foul?
Marcus Aurelius
Take the shortest route. The one that nature planned - to speak and act in the healthiest way. Do that, and be free of pain and stress, free of all calculations and pretension.
Marcus Aurelius
To understand the true quality of people, you must look into their minds, and examine their pursuits and aversions.
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
Where life is possible at all, a right life is possible life in a palace is possible therefore even in a palace a right life is possible.
Marcus Aurelius
It's silly to try to escape other people's faults. They are inescapable. Just try to escape your own.
Marcus Aurelius
Everything is banal in experience, fleeting in duration, sordid in content in all respects the same today as generations now dead and buried have found it to be.
Marcus Aurelius
Put from you the belief that 'I have been wronged', and with it will go the feeling. Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.
Marcus Aurelius
Truth and ceremony are two things.
Marcus Aurelius
Dig within. There lies the wellspring of good.
Marcus Aurelius
Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.
Marcus Aurelius
The world is nothing but change, our life is only perception.
Marcus Aurelius
That which makes the man no worse than he was makes his life no worse: it has no power to harm, without or within.
Marcus Aurelius
He that lives alone lives in danger society avoids many dangers.
Marcus Aurelius
The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.
Marcus Aurelius
