Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.
Marcus AureliusAnything that is beautiful is beautiful just as it is. Praise forms no part of its beauty, since praise makes things neither better nor worse. This applies even more to what it commonly called beautiful: natural objects, for example, or works of art. True beauty has no need of anything beyond itself.
Marcus Aurelius
