Men seek out retreats for themselves in the country, by the seaside, on the moutains. . .But all this is unphilosophical to the last degree. . .when thou canst at a moment's notice retire into thyself. -- Marcus Aelius Aurelius
Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life. -- Marcus Aelius Aurelius
If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it and this you have the power to revoke at any moment. -- Marcus Aelius Aurelius
I don't believe in pessimism. If something doesn't come up the way you want, forge ahead. If you think it's going to rain, it will. -- Marcus Aelius Aurelius
