Marcus Aurelius

Look beneath the surface; let not the several quality of a thing nor its worth escape thee.

Marcus Aurelius

Look to the essence of a thing, whether it be a point of doctrine, of practice, or of interpretation.

Marcus Aurelius

Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look there.

Marcus Aurelius

Love the little trade which you have learned, and be content with it.

Marcus Aurelius

Man is born for deeds of kindness.

Marcus Aurelius

Men despise one another and flatter one another; and men wish to raise themselves above one another, and crouch before one another.

Marcus Aurelius

Misfortune nobly born is good fortune.

Marcus Aurelius

My only fear is doing something contrary to human nature – the wrong thing, the wrong way, or at the wrong time.

Marcus Aurelius

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

Marcus Aurelius

Nature insists on whatever benefits the whole.
