Pure Spring

 

         Pure Spring

If a man stands by a pure spring
the spring that never ceases sending potable water

If he should cast clay into it - or filth
it will speedily disperse them or wash them out
and will not be at all polluted

How then shall you possess a perpetual fountain
by forming yourself hourly to
freedom, conjoined with contentment, simplicity, and modesty

Authors

Marcus Aurelius
