Gain insight and inspiration from Marcus Aurelius quotes like this:
“From Apollonius, I learned the importance of free will and unwavering determination. I learned to focus only on logic, and constancy even in sharp pain such as after losing a child, or during a long illness. He showed me that a person can be both resolute and yielding.”
Or how about this quote; “”Begin the morning by reminding yourself that you will meet annoying, ungrateful, arrogant, deceitful, envious, and unfriendly people. They act this way because they do not understand what is good and bad. But I know that good is beautiful and bad is ugly. And those who do wrong are still like me, they share the same intelligence and divinity. They cannot truly harm me or diminish that which is good within me.”
A favorite stoic quote? “Nowhere else can you find more peace and freedom than within your own soul.”
In our rapidly changing modern world, the timeless wisdom of stoic philosophy has re-emerged as an invaluable guide to build unshakable resolve and resilience in the face of fate.
Do yourself a good deed. Pause to share a moment with the past and soothe and strengthen your soul with stoic philosophy that has endured through the ages.
