Life is a stranger's sojourn,...

Life is a stranger's sojourn, a night at an inn.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

If someone is able to show me...

If someone is able to show me that what I think or do is not right, I will happily change, for I seek the truth, by which no one ever was truly harmed. Harmed is the person who continues in his self-deception and ignorance.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Since it is possible that tho...

Since it is possible that thou mayest depart from life this very moment, regulate every act and thought accordingly. But to go away from among men, if there are gods, is not a thing to be afraid of, for the gods will not involve thee in evil; but if indeed they do not exist, or if they have no concern about human affairs, what is it to me to live in a universe devoid of gods or devoid of Providence? But Gods there are, undoubtedly, and they regard human affairs; and have put it wholly in our power, that we should not fall into what is truly evil.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Never act without purpose and...

Never act without purpose and resolve, or without the means to finish the job.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

The only thing that isn't wor...

The only thing that isn't worthless: to live this life out truthfully and rightly, And be patience with those who don't.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Stop whatever you're doing fo...

Stop whatever you're doing for a moment and ask yourself: Am I afraid of death because I won't be able to do this anymore?

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Humans have come into being f...

Humans have come into being for the sake of each other, so either teach them, or learn to bear them.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Why do you hunger for length ...

Why do you hunger for length of days? The point of life is to follow reason and the divine spirit and to accept whatever nature sends you. To live in this way is not to fear death, but to hold it in contempt. Death is only a thing of terror for those unable to live in the present. Pass on your way, then, with a smiling face, under the smile of him who bids you go

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

No man is happy who does not ...

No man is happy who does not think himself so.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

How ridiculous and how strange to be surprised at anything which happens in life

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Take away the complaint, 'I h...

Take away the complaint, 'I have been harmed,' and the harm is taken away.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Dig within. There lies the wellspring of good.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

We are born for synergy, just...

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 881 quotes

Body. Soul. Mind. Sensations:...

Body. Soul. Mind. Sensations: the body. Desires: the soul. Reasoning: the mind.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Your manners will depend very...

Your manners will depend very much upon the quality of what you frequently think on; for the soul is as it were tinged with the colour and complexion of thought.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

If you separate from . . . ev...

If you separate from . . . everything you have done in the past, everything that disturbs you about the future . . . and apply yourself to living the life that you are living-that is to say, the present-you can live all the time that remains to you until your death in calm, benevolence, and serenity.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

He who pays no attention to w...

He who pays no attention to what his neighbor does, says or thinks, preferring to concentrate on making his own actions appropriate and justifiable, better uses his time.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

A person's life is dyed with ...

A person's life is dyed with the color of his imagination.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

All things are linked with on...

All things are linked with one another, and this oneness is sacred; there is nothing that is not interconnected with everything else. For things are interdependent, and they combine to form this universal order. There is only one universe made up of all things, and one creator who pervades them; there is one substance and one law, namely, common reason in all thinking creatures, and all truth is one-if, as we believe, there is only one path of perfection for all beings who share the same mind.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Reject your sense of injury, ...

Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.
