Prize that which is best in the universe; and this is that which useth everything and ordereth everything.
Marcus AureliusAlways run to the short way; and the short way is the natural: accordingly say and do everything in conformity with the soundest reason. For such a purpose frees a man from trouble, and warfare, and all artifice and ostentatious display.
Marcus AureliusSuch as are thy habitual thoughts, such also will be the character of thy mind; for the soul is dyed by the thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius
