Marcus Aurelius — "Do not disturb yourself by picturing your life as a whole; do not embrace in you…"

Do not disturb yourself by picturing your life as a whole; do not embrace in your imagination all the various troubles which are likely to befall you, but rather, at every accession of trouble, ask yourself, 'What is there in this that is intolerable and past bearing?'
Marcus Aurelius — Marcus Aurelius Ancient · Stoic philosophy, Roman Emperor
