10 quotes from "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelius to conquer your mind


1. "Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one."

2. "If it is not right, do not do it, if it is not true, do not say it."

3. "Discard your misperceptions. Stop being jerked like a puppet. Limit yourself to the present."

4. "You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength."

5. "Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth."

6. "When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love.."

7. "If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment"

8. "The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury."

9. "You could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think."

10. "It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live."
