Marcus Aurelius

He that lives alone lives in danger; society avoids many dangers.

Marcus Aurelius

He that sinneth, sinneth unto himself. He that is unjust, hurts himself, in that he makes himself worse than he was before. Not he only that committeth, but he also that omitteth something, is oftentimes unjust.

Marcus Aurelius

He was taught to dress plainly and to live simply, to avoid all softness and luxury.

Marcus Aurelius

He who does wrong does wrong against himself. He who acts unjustly acts unjustly to himself, because he makes himself bad.

Marcus Aurelius

He who has seen present things has seen all, both everything which has taken place from all eternity and everything which will be for time without end; for all things are of one kin and of one form.

Marcus Aurelius

He who loves fame considers another man’s activity to be his own good; and he who loves pleasure, his own sensations; but he who has understanding, considers his own acts to be his own good.

Marcus Aurelius

He who pays no attention to what his neighbor does, says or thinks, preferring to concentrate on making his own actions appropriate and justifiable, better uses his time.

Marcus Aurelius

Honor and revere the gods, treat human beings as they deserve, be tolerant with others and strict with yourself. Remember, nothing belongs to you but your flesh and blood-and nothing else is under your control.

Marcus Aurelius

How easy it is to repel and release every impression which is troublesome and immediately to be tranquil.

Marcus Aurelius

How many after being celebrated by fame have been given up to oblivion; and how many who have celebrated the fame of others have long been dead.

Marcus Aurelius
