Busyness
Marcus Aurelius pg.36 : Book Seven
The idle business of show plays on the stage-
flocks of sheep
The idle business of show plays on the stage-
flocks of sheep
exercises with spears
a bone cast to little dogs
a bit of bread into fresh ponds
running about of frightened little mice
puppets pulled by strings alike
It is then your duty in the middle of such things
to show good humor and not a proud air!!!
Understand that
every person is worth just as much
as things are worth about which she busies herself!!!
