From Marcus Aurelius Book 12

Marcus Aurelius Book 12

“It’s all how you perceive it. You’re in control. You can dispense with misconception at will, like rounding the point. Serenity, total calm, safe anchorage.

Excerpt From: Emperor of Rome Marcus Aurelius. “Meditations.”

Book #12, 22

“Remember that all is but as thy opinion of it, and that is thy power. Efface thy opinion then, as thou mayest do at will, and lo, a great calm! Like mariner that hast turned the headland thou findest all at set-fair and a halcyon sea.”

Excerpt From: Emperor of Rome Marcus Aurelius. “Meditations.”
