MARCUS AURELIUSHow ridiculous and how strange to be surprised at anything which happens in life.
MARCUS AURELIUSTo refrain from imitation is the best revenge.
MARCUS AURELIUSIf it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.
MARCUS AURELIUSThe best revenge is not to do as they do.

MARCUS AURELIUSDo not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.

MARCUS AURELIUSYou have power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.
