Marcus Aurelius Quotes

There is a limit circumscribed to your time – if you do not use it to clear away your clouds, it will be gone, and you will be gone, and the opportunity will not return Picture Quote #1

Because a thing is difficult for you, do not therefore suppose it to be beyond mortal power. On the contrary, if anything is possible and proper for man to do, assume that it must fall within your own capacity Picture Quote #1

Light may earth’s crumbling sand be laid on thee, that dogs may dig thy bones up easily Picture Quote #1

Know the joy of life by piling good deed on good deed until no rift or cranny appears between them Picture Quote #1

Take it that you have died today, and your life’s story is ended; and henceforward regard what future time may be given you as uncovenanted surplus, and live it out in harmony with nature Picture Quote #1

Vex not thy spirit at the course of things; they heed not thy vexation. How ludicrous and outlandish is astonishment at anything that may happen in life Picture Quote #1

Spend your brief moment according to nature’s law, and serenely greet the journey’s end as an olive falls when it is ripe, blessing the branch that bare it, and giving thanks to the tree that gave it life Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Choose not to be harmed and you won’t feel harmed. Don’t feel harmed and you haven’t been Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

You exist but as a part inherent in a greater whole. Do not live as though you had a thousand years before you. The common due impends; while you live, and while you may, be good Picture Quote #1

I am an old man and have had many worries, but most have never come to pass Picture Quote #1

Change your attitude to the things that bother you and you will be aware of them Picture Quote #1

Always bear this in mind, that very little indeed is necessary for living a happy life Picture Quote #1

Short is the little time which remains to thee of life. Live as on a mountain Picture Quote #1

Your days are numbered. Use them to throw open the windows of your soul to the sun. If you do not, the sun will soon set, and you with it Picture Quote #1

Be like the rocky headland on which the waves constantly break. It stands firm, and round it the seething waters are laid to rest Picture Quote #1

Bear in mind that the measure of a man is the worth of the things he cares about Picture Quote #1

Stop whatever you’re doing for a moment and ask yourself: Am I afraid of death because I won’t be able to do this anymore? Picture Quote #1

Reflect often upon the rapidity with which all existing things, or things coming into existence, sweep past us and are carried away Picture Quote #1

Take me and cast me where you will; I shall still be possessor of the divinity within me, serene and content Picture Quote #1

A man should remove not only unnecessary acts, but also unnecessary thoughts, for then superfluous activity will not follow Picture Quote #1

When you are offended at anyone’s fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. By attending to them, you will forget your anger and learn to live wisely Picture Quote #1

Consider frequently the connection of all things in the universe and their relation to one another. For things are somehow implicated with one another, and all in a way friendly to one another Picture Quote #1

Your time has a limit set to it. Use it, then, to advance your enlightenment; or it will be gone, and never in your power again Picture Quote #1

Imagine you were now dead, or had not lived before his moment. Now view the rest of your life as a bonus Picture Quote #1

Everything that happens either happens in such a way as you are formed by nature to bear it, or as you are not formed by nature to bear it Picture Quote #1

When we consider we are bound to be serviceable to mankind, and bear with their faults, we shall perceive there is a common tie of nature and relation between us Picture Quote #1

Dig inside. Inside is the fountain of good, and it will forever flow, if you will forever dig Picture Quote #1

It is the responsibility of leadership to work intelligently with what is given, and not waste time fantasizing about a world of flawless people and perfect choices Picture Quote #1
