Quotes Of Marcus Aurelius
"Adapt yourself to the environment in which your lot has been cast, and show true love to the fellow-mortals with whom destiny has surrounded you."
"Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man; but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also."
"Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig."
"Do every act of your life as if it were your last."
"He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe."
"Live not as though there were a thousand years ahead of you. Fate is at your elbow; make yourself good while life and power are still yours."
"Loss is nothing else but change, and change is Nature's delight."
"Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life."
"Put an end once and for all to this discussion of what a good man should be, and be one."
"The universal order and the personal order are nothing but different expressions and manifestations of a common underlying principle."

Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it.
~Plato
Left-handed people are statistically more likely to be geniuses, and to be insane. Left-handedness is more common among writers and some kinds of artists. But lefties tend to be more accident-prone and on average don't live as long.
