Marcus Aurelius

Receive wealth or prosperity without arrogance; and be ready to let it go.

Marcus Aurelius

Receive without conceit, release without struggle.

Marcus Aurelius

Remember that to change your mind and follow him who sets you right is to be none the less free than you were before.

Marcus Aurelius

Remember that what pulls the strings is the force hidden within; there lies the power to persuade, there the life – there, if one must speak out, the real man.

Marcus Aurelius

Remember, nothing belongs to you but your flesh and blood-and nothing else is under your control.

Marcus Aurelius

Swiftly the remembrance of all things is buried in the gulf of eternity.

Marcus Aurelius

Take full account of what Excellencies you possess, and in gratitude remember how you would hanker after them, if you had them not.

Marcus Aurelius

Take the shortest route, the one that nature planned-to speak and act in the healthiest way. Do that, and be free of pain and stress, free of all calculation and pretension.

Marcus Aurelius

That which comes after ever conforms to that which has gone before.

Marcus Aurelius

That which is not good for the bee-hive cannot be good for the bees.
