Marcus Aurelius

The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.

Reject your sense of injury and the injury itself disappears.

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

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive — to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

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