Marcus Aurelius: “I can have that opinion about anything which I ought to have.”

What remains, except to enjoy life by joining one good thing to another so as not to leave even the smallest intervals between?

There is one intelligent soul, though it seems to be divided.

How small a part of the boundless and unfathomable time is assigned to every man, for it is very soon swallowed up in the eternal!

Reflecting on all this, consider nothing to be great, except to act as thy nature leads thee, and to endure that which the common nature brings.
