More Quotes From Marcus Aurelius

Time is a sort of river of passing events and strong is its current no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place and this too will be swept away.
Marcus Aurelius
The passing minute is every man's equal possession but what has once gone by is not ours.
Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius
It is not the weight of the future or the past that is pressing upon you but ever that of the present alone. Even this burden too can be lessened if you confine it strictly to its own limits.
Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius
How much time he gains who does not look to see what his neighbor says or does or thinks but only at what he does himself to make it just and holy.
Marcus Aurelius
Man must be arched and buttressed from within else the temple wavers to dust.
Marcus Aurelius
