More Quotes by Marcus Aurelius
Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
If someone can prove me wrong and show me my mistake in any thought or action, I shall gladly change. I seek the truth, which never harmed anyone: the harm is to persist in one's own self-deception and ignorance.
Adapt yourself to the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.
It never ceases to amaze me: we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinions than our own.
Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.
You always own the option of having no opinion. There is never any need to get worked up or to trouble your soul about things you can't control. These things are not asking to be judged by you. Leave them alone.
Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
Whenever you are about to find fault with someone, ask yourself the following question: What fault of mine most nearly resembles the one I am about to criticize?
The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.
The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Your soul takes on the color of your thoughts.
