Other Marcus Aurelius quotes:
He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live according to nature.
If you are distressed by anything, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it.
You have to assemble your life yourself - action by action.
Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already.
A man's life is what his thoughts make of it.
The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.
Each of us lives only now, this brief instant. The rest has been lived already, or is impossible to see. The span we live is small - small as the corner of the earth in which we live it.
Give full attention and devotion to each act.
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
