Marcus Aurelius

To accept it without arrogance, to let it go with indifference.

The best way to avenge yourself is to be unlike the man who did the injury.

Do not be ashamed of help. It is your purpose to do your duty, like a soldier storming a wall. What if you are lame, and cannot climb it alone, but can with the help of another?

That which is not good for the beehive cannot be good for the bees.

The true man is one who is not afraid to stand alone.

Every man is worth just so much as the things about which he busies himself.
