Marcus Aurelius Quotes

Marcus Aurelius QuotesA man should be upright, not be kept upright.

Each thing is of like form from everlasting and comes round again in its cycle.

Everything that exists is in a manner the seed of that which will be.

Everything that happens happens as it should, and if you observe carefully, you will find this to be so.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

Execute every act of thy life as though it were thy last.

He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe.

How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it.

How much time he saves who does not look to see what his neighbor says or does or thinks.

I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinions of himself than on the opinions of others.

If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.

It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.

Look back over the past, with its changing empires that rose and fell, and you can foresee the future, too.

Loss is nothing else but change, and change is nature’s delight.

Men exist for the sake of one another.

Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

Nothing happens to any man that he is not formed by nature to bear.

Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life.

Nowhere can man find a quieter or more untroubled retreat than in his own soul.

Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to make new things like them.

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. ~John Homer Miller

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company… a church… a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past… we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you… we are in charge of our Attitudes. ~Charles R. Swindoll

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. ~Leo Buscaglia

We are gods and goddesses of our own universe.

Spirit is the giver, and we are the rivers through which love flows.

The words I breathe are spirit’s love infused with the unique essence of my true self.

In your heart burns a mystic fire, always growing and reaching higher.

Dear Mr. Opinion and Ms. Bad Advice: You’re not a brush in my hair. You’re more like head lice.

Many who predict the future or look into the past don’t have a clue what’s going on right now.

There’s gotta be a way to make this nanosecond last longer. Whooosh! Oh well, here comes another one.

If it’s true that we only use 10 percent of our brains, can you imagine the ensuing madness if the remaining 90 percent suddenly hopped on the bandwagon?

I breathe you in, you breathe me out and new worlds are created,
The gentle touch of your sweet love, my heart forever sated.
