More from Marcus Aurelius
He was also easy in conversation, and he made himself agreeable without any offensive affectation.
For he who yields to pain and he who yields to anger, both are wounded and both submit.
That which is from fortune is not separated from nature or without an interweaving and involution with the things which are ordered by providence.
