Marcus Aurelius : pg.46 : Book 8 : Meditations
It is your duty to order your life
in every single act
and if every act does its duty,
as far as possible
Be Content
and nobody shall hinder you so that each act
shall not do its Duty
but something external will stand in the way
nothing will stand in the way of you
acting justly, soberly, and considerately
but perhaps some other power may hinder you
but by acquiescing the hindrance -
and by being content to transfer the efforts to that which is allowed
another opportunity is
put before you in place
of that which was hindered!
of that which was hindered!
