Marcus Aurelius
Image
How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
You are a little soul bearing about a corpse, as Epictetus used to say.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
It never ceases to amaze me: we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinions than our own.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
If any man can convince me and bring home to me that I do not think or act aright, gladly will I change for I search after truth, by which man never yet was harmed. But he is harmed who abideth on still in his deception and ignorance.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
...small too even the longest fame thereafter, which is itself subject to a succession of little men who quickly die, and have no knowledge of themselves, let alone of those long dead.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
They know not how many things are signified by the words stealing, sowing, buying, keeping quiet, seeing what ought to be done for this is not effected by the eyes, but by another kind of vision.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The controlling Intelligence understands its own nature, and what it does, and whereon it works.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Love the people with whom fate brings you together
Marcus Aurelius
Image
We are born for synergy, just like the feet, just like the hands, just like the eyes, just like the rows of upper and lower teeth. Working against each other is unnatural, and being annoyed and turning one's back is counterproductive.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Let there be freedom from perturbations with respect to the things which come from the external cause and let there be justice in the things done by virtue of the internal cause, that is, let there be movement and action terminating in this, in social acts, for this is according to thy nature.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Whosoever does wrong, wrongs himself whosoever does injustice, does it to himself, making himself evil.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Where any work can be done conformably to the reason which is common to gods and men, there we have nothing to fear for where we are able to get profit by means of the activity which is successful and proceeds according to our constitution, there no harm is to be suspected.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
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
Image
If souls continue to exist, how does the air contain them from eternity?
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
How ridiculous not to flee from one's own wickedness, which is possible, yet endeavor to flee from another's which is not.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
No one can lose either the past or the future - how could anyone be deprived of what he does not possess? ... It is only the present moment of which either stands to be deprived: and if this is all he has, he cannot lose what he does not have.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
One universe made up all that is and one God in it all, and one principle of being, and one law, the reason shared by all thinking creatures, and one truth.
Marcus Aurelius
