Marcus Aurelius Quotes

Do not be ashamed of help.

Marcus Aurelius

Be your own master, and look at things as a man, as a human being, as a citizen, as a mortal creature.

Marcus Aurelius

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

Every living organism is fulfilled when it follows the right path for its own nature.

Marcus Aurelius

Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.

Marcus Aurelius
