And what after all is everlasting fame? Altogether vanity.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Gluttony and drunkenness have ...

Gluttony and drunkenness have two evils attendant on them; they make the carcass smart, as well as the pocket.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

The one thing worth living for...

The one thing worth living for is to keep one's soul pure.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Everything harmonizes with me,...

Everything harmonizes with me, which is harmonious to thee, o Universe. Nothing for me is too early or too late, which is in due time for thee.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Nature which governs the whole...

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Accept whatever comes to you w...

Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs?

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

In the life of a man, his time...

In the life of a man, his time is but a moment, his being an incessant flux, his sense a dim rushlight, his body a prey of worms, his soul an unquiet eddy, his fortune dark, his fame doubtful. In short, all that is body is as coursing waters, all that is of the soul as dreams and vapors.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Is your cucumber bitter? Throw...

Is your cucumber bitter? Throw it away. Are there briars in your path? Turn aside. That is enough. Do not go on and say, 'Why were things of this sort ever brought into this world?' neither intolerable nor everlasting - if thou bearest in mind that it has its limits, and if thou addest nothing to it in imagination. Pain is either an evil to the body (then let the body say what it thinks of it!)-or to the soul. But it is in the power of the soul to maintain its own serenity and tranquility. . . .

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Though you break your heart, m...

Though you break your heart, men will go on as before.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Were you to live three thousan...
