Antoninus

When thou art above measure angry, bethink thee how momentary is man's life.

M. Antoninus

All the transactions of the past differ very little from those of the present.

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

Live with the gods.
Death, like birth, is a secret of Nature.
It is man's peculiar duty to love even those who wrong him.
By a tranquil mind I mean nothing else than a mind well ordered.
Whatever may befall thee, it was preordained for thee from everlasting.
Love the little trade which thou hast learned, and be content therewith.
Be not careless in deeds, nor confused in words, nor rambling in thought.
