No one loses any other life than the one he now lives, nor does one live any other life than that which he will lose.
Marcus AureliusGluttony and drunkenness have two evils attendant on them; they make the carcass smart, as well as the pocket.
Marcus AureliusHow can a man find a sensible way to live? One way and one only- Philosophy. And my philosophy means keeping that vital spark within you free from damage and degradation, using it to transcend pain and pleasure, doing everything with a purpose, avoiding lies and hypocrisy, not relying on another person's actions or failings. To accept everything that comes, and everything that is given, as coming from that same spiritual source.
Marcus AureliusObserve always that everything is the result of a change, and get used to thinking that there is nothing Nature loves so well as to change existing forms and to make new ones like them.
