Book 8 - meditations - Marcus Aurelius

49- Do not elaborate to yourself beyond what your initial impression report. You have been told that so-and-so is maligning you. That is the report: you have not been told that you are harmed

59- Men are born for the sake of each other. So either teach or tolerate.

11 - if you can, show them the better way. If cannot, remember that this is why you have the gift of kindness. The gods too are kind to such people, and in their benevolence even help them achieve some ends - Health, wealth, fame. You can do it too

20- you should leave another’s wrong where it lies

28- The whole is either a god - then all is well: or if purposeless - you should not be without purpose yourself.

8-16 “Remember that to change course or accept correction leaves just as free as you were, The action is your own, driven by your own impulse and judgement, indeed your own intelligence.”

"you have subsisted as a part of the Whole. You will vanish into that which gave you birth: or rather you will be changed, taken up into the generative principle of the universe."

"Change: nothing inherently bad in the process, nothing inherently good in the result."

Book 3 - 4
Do not waste the remaining part of your life in thoughts about other people ...

Why deprive yourself of the time for some other task? I mean thinking about so-and-so is doing, and why....

Train yourself to think only those thoughts such that in answer to the sudden question: "What is in your mind now?" you could say with immediate frankness whatever it is.

Book I notes:

"to always be the same man, unchanged in sudden pain"

"self-mastery, immune to any passing whim; good cheer in all circumstances including ilness; a nice balance of character, both gentle and dignified. an uncomplaining energy for what needs to be done well intentioned in all that you do, in nothing either hurried or hesitant"

message 1: by Peerke (new) - added it

Peerke Linders 10- Regret is a censure of yourself for missing something beneficial. The good must be something beneficial, and of concern to the wholly good person. No wholly good person would regret missing a pleasure. Therefore pleasure is neither beneficial nor a good.

12- When you are reluctant to get up from your sleep, remind yourself that it is in your constitution and man’s nature to perform social acts, whereas sleep is something you share with animals. Now what accords with the nature of each being is thereby the more closely related to it, the more essence, and indeed the more to its liking.

29- Erase the impression on your mind by constantly saying to yourself: ‘It is in my power to keep this soul of mine free from any vice or passion, or any other disturbance at all: but seeing all things for what they are, I can treat them on their merits.’ Remember this power which nature gives you.
