Marcus Aurelius
  • There is nothing happens to any person but what was in his power to go through with.

  • Adapt yourself to the things among which your lot has been cast and love sincerely the fellow creatures with whom destiny has ordained that you shall live.

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

  • You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

  • Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also.
