Marcus Aurelius Quotes

All that happens is as usual and familiar as the rose in spring and the crop in summer Picture Quote #1

Deem not life a thing of consequence. For look at the yawning void of the future, and at that other limitless space, the past Picture Quote #1

Always take the short cut; and that is the rational one. Therefore say and do everything according to soundest reason Picture Quote #1

A man makes no noise over a good deed, but passes on to another as a vine to bear grapes again in season Picture Quote #1

Prize that which is best in the universe; and this is that which useth everything and ordereth everything Picture Quote #1

How many together with whom I came into the world are already gone out of it Picture Quote #1

Understand however that every man is worth just so much as the things are worth about which he busies himself Picture Quote #1

To a rational being it is the same thing to act according to nature and according to reason Picture Quote #1

The happiness and unhappiness of the rational, social animal depends not on what he feels but on what he does; just as his virtue and vice consist not in feeling but in doing Picture Quote #1

He that dies in extreme old age will be reduced to the same state with him that is cut down untimely Picture Quote #1

Thou seest how few be the things, the which if a man has at his command his life flows gently on and is divine Picture Quote #1

Though thou be destined to live three thousand years and as many myriads besides, yet remember that no man loseth other life than that which he liveth, nor liveth other than that which heloseth Picture Quote #1

As for life, it is a battle and a sojourning in a strange land; but the fame that comes after is oblivion Picture Quote #1

He who has seen present things has seen all, both everything which has taken place from all eternity and everything which will be for time without end; for all things are of one kin and of one form Picture Quote #1

When men are inhuman, take care not to feel towards them as they do towards other humans Picture Quote #1

Live not as though there were a thousand years ahead of you. Fate is at your elbow; make yourself good while life and power are still yours Picture Quote #1

The passing minute is every man’s equal possession but what has once gone by is not ours Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Remember that the sole life which a man can lose is that which he is living at the moment Picture Quote #1

In reading and writing, you cannot lay down rules until you have learnt to obey them. Much more so in life Picture Quote #1

The sinner sins against himself; the wrongdoer wrongs himself, becoming the worse by his own action Picture Quote #1

Treat with utmost respect your power of forming opinions, for this power alone guards you against making assumptions that are contrary to nature and judgments that overthrow the rule of reason Picture Quote #1

Every man’s life lies within the present; for the past is spent and done with, and the future is uncertain Picture Quote #1

The stream of tendency in which all things seek to fulfill the law of their being Picture Quote #1

The first rule is to keep an untroubled spirit. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are Picture Quote #1

Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs? Picture Quote #1

That which is really beautiful has no need of anything; not more than law, not more than truth, not more than benevolence or modesty Picture Quote #1

Pass then through this little space of time conformably to nature, and end thy journey in content, just as an olive falls off when it is ripe, blessing nature who produced it, and thanking the tree on which it grew Picture Quote #1

Art thou angry with him whose armpits stink? Art thou angry with him whose mouth smells foul? Picture Quote #1

No one loses any other life than the one he now lives, nor does one live any other life than that which he will lose Picture Quote #1
