Other Marcus Aurelius quotes:
Let no act be done without purpose.
If you're honest and straightforward and mean well, it should show in your eyes. It should be unmistakable.
Do every act of your life as if it were your last.
A man should remove not only unnecessary acts, but also unnecessary thoughts, for then superfluous activity will not follow.
You should banish any thoughts of how you may appear to others.
A man's worth is no greater than the worth of his ambitions.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
Failing to understand the workings of one's own mind is bound to lead to unhappiness.
Stop allowing your mind to be a slave, to be jerked about by selfish impulses, to kick against fate and the present, and to mistrust the future.
