Quotes

Marcus Aurelius also said...


Universal Nature has made reasonable creatures for the sake of one another.





Delve within; within is the fountain of good, and it is always ready to bubble up, if you always delve.





Often he who omits an act does injustice, not only he who commits an act.





Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.





'No soul is willing to be robbed of truth', he says. The same holds of justice, too, of temperance, of kindness, and the like. It is most necessary to remember this continually, for thus you will be more gentle to all men.





Do not trouble yourself, make yourself simple.
