Love the little trade which thou hast learned, and be content therewith.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

An angry look on the face is w...

An angry look on the face is wholly against nature. If it be assumed frequently, beauty begins to perish, and in the end is quenched beyond rekindling.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

In this flowing stream, then, ...

In this flowing stream, then, on which there is no abiding, what is there of the things which hurry by on which a man would set a high price? It would be just as if a man should fall in love with one of the sparrows which fly by, but it has already passed out of sight.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

No form of nature is inferior ...

No form of nature is inferior to art; for the arts merely imitate natural forms. - Variant: There is no nature which is inferior to art, the arts imitate the nature of things.

If unwilling to rise in the morning, say to thyself, 'I awake to do the work of a man.'

I cannot comprehend how any man can want anything but the truth.

The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

Choose not to be harmed and you won't feel harmed. Don't feel harmed and you haven't been.

Say to yourself in the early morning: I shall meet today ungrateful, violent, treacherous, envious, uncharitable men. All of these things have come upon them through ignorance of real good and ill... I can neither be harmed by any of them, for no man will involve me in wrong, nor can I be angry with my kinsman or hate him; for we have come into the world to work together...

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

It will suffice thee to remember as concerning pain ... that the mind may, by stopping all manner of commerce and sympathy with the body, still retain its own tranquility.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Be not as one that hath ten thousand years to live; death is nigh at hand: while thou livest, while thou hast time, be good.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Remember how often you have po...

Remember how often you have postponed minding your interest, and let slip those opportunities the gods have given you. It is now high time to consider what sort of world you are part of, and from what kind of governor of it you are descended; that you have a set period assigned you to act in, and unless you improve it to brighten and compose your thoughts, it will quickly run off with you, and be lost beyond recovery.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Dig within. There lies the wellspring of good.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Waste no more time talking about great souls and how they should be, become one yourself!

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

Put from you the belief that 'I have been wronged', and with it will go the feeling. Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.

Marcus Aurelius 881 quotes

To them that ask: Where hast t...

To them that ask: Where hast thou seen the Gods, or how knowest thou certainly that there be Gods, that thou art so devout in their worship? I answer: Neither have I seen my own soul, and yet I respect and honor it.
