The soul is dyed by the thoughts. Dye it then, with a continuous series of such thoughts as these - that where a man can live, there - if he will - he can also live well.
Marcus AureliusAll things are in the act of change; thou thyself in ceaseless transformation and partial decay, and the whole universe with thee.
Marcus AureliusHast thou reason? I have. Why then dost not thou use it? For if this does its own work, what else dost thou wish?
Marcus Aurelius
