This is the chief thing: be not perturbed, for all things are according to the nature of the universal.

Can we wonder that men perish and are forgotten, when their noblest and most enduring works decay? Death comes even to monumental structures, and oblivion rests on the most illustrious names.

Enter others' minds and let them enter yours.

It is not the actions of others which trouble us (for those actions are controlled by their governing part), but rather it is our own judgments. Therefore remove those judgments and resolve to let go of your anger, and it will already be gone. How do you let go? By realizing that such actions are not shameful to you.

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.

It never ceases to amaze me: we all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinions than our own.

Let no act be done without purpose.
