Marcus Aurelieus
pg.17 Meditations
"I have been harmed" Take away thy complaint ;
"I have been harmed" and harm is taken away;
Consider that everything that happens, happens Justly!
As if it were done by One , who assigns to each thing its Value!
Then , a person should have 2 rules in readiness :
1. To do only whatever the reason of ruling suggests
2. Change your opinion - if its preceded by reason and common good!
(If you do so)
With in 10 days, you will seem a God to those
whom you are now a beast
If you return to principle and worship of reason!
