Other Marcus Aurelius quotes:
You should banish any thoughts of how you may appear to others.
Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live according to nature.
Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already.
A man should remove not only unnecessary acts, but also unnecessary thoughts, for then superfluous activity will not follow.
He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
Disgraceful: for the soul to give up when the body is still going strong.
The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.
Never value anything as profitable that compels you to break your promise, to lose your self-respect, to hate any man, to suspect, to curse, to act the hypocrite, to desire anything that needs walls and curtains.
