Image
Every living organism is fulfilled when it follows the right path for its own nature.
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
I, who have never willfully pained another, have no business to pain myself.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Your mind will take on the character of your most frequent thoughts: souls are dyed by thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The blazing fire makes flames and brightness out of everything thrown into it.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
There is a limit circumscribed to your time – if you do not use it to clear away your clouds, it will be gone, and you will be gone, and the opportunity will not return
Marcus Aurelius

Nothing is worth doing pointlessly.

Keep yourself simple, good, pure, serious, and unassuming the friend of justice and godliness kindly, affectionate, and resolute in your devotion to duty.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
That which is really beautiful has no need of anything not more than law, not more than truth, not more than benevolence or modesty.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
We must press on then, in haste not simply because every hour brings us nearer to death, but because even before then our powers of perception and comprehension begin to deteriorate.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Remember that all is opinion. For what was said by the Cynic Monimus is manifest: and manifest too is the use of what was said, if a man receives what may be got out of it as far as it is true.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. Are there briars in your path? Turn aside. That is enough. Do not go on and ay, 'Why were things of this sort ever brought into the world?'
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Everything is mere opinion.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Run down the list of those who felt intense anger at something: the most famous, the most unfortunate, the most hated, the most whatever: Where is all that now? Smoke, dust, legend...or not even a legend. Think of all the examples. And how trivial the things we want so passionately are.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Because a thing is difficult for you, do not therefore suppose it to be beyond mortal power. On the contrary, if anything is possible and proper for man to do, assume that it must fall within your own capacity.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Give full attention and devotion to each act.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Look well into thyself there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.
Marcus Aurelius
