Marcus Aurelius
  • Here is the rule to remember in the future, When anything tempts you to be bitter: not, 'This is a misfortune' but 'To bear this worthily is good fortune.'

  • Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.

  • Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.

  • Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.

  • We ought to do good to others as simply as a horse runs, or a bee makes honey, or a vine bears grapes season after season without thinking of the grapes it has borne.
