Philosopher Emperor

Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, "The Wise"



"Anger cannot be dishonest."

"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."

"Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present."
