“Variant Translation: Let not thy mind run on what thou lackest as much as on what thou hast already.”

Book VII • Marcus Aurelius

“We are not born for ourselves alone; a part of us is claimed by our nation, another part by our friends.”

On Duties • Marcus Tullius Cicero

““For certainly old age has a great sense of calm and freedom; when the passions relax their hold, then, as Sophocles says, we are freed from the grasp not of one mad master only, but of many. The truth is, Socrates, that these regrets, and also the complaints about relations, are to be attributed to the same cause, which is not old age, but men’s characters and tempers; for he who is of a calm and happy nature will hardly feel the pressure of age, but to him who is of an opposite disposition youth and age are equally a burden.””

Republic • Plato

“...from politics, it was an easy step to silence.”

Northanger Abbey • Jane Austen

“Be not careless in deeds, nor confused in words, nor rambling in thought.”

Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius
