"The world is mere change, and this..." - Quote by Marcus Aurelius

“If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.”

“Do not act as if you had a thousand years to live.”

“Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.”

“The same thinking that has led you to where you are is not going to lead you to where you want to go.”

“To resist change, to try to cling to life, is therefore like holding your breath: if you persist you kill yourself.”

“People didn't change. they liked what they liked even if they didn't understand why.”

“Most people are rowing against the current of life. Instead of turning the boat around, all they need to do is let go of the oars.”

“The results of life are uncalculated and uncalculable. The years teach much which the days never know. The persons who compose our company, converse, and come and go, and design and execute many things, and somewhat comes of it all, but an unlooked for result. The individual is always mistaken. He designed many things, and drew in other persons as coadjutors, quarrelled with some or all, blundered much, and something is done; all are a little advanced, but the individual is always mistaken. It turns out somewhat new, and very unlike what he promised himself.”

“Age continually alters the faces of those who think or study, and so their portraits differ from one another and don't even resemble them for very long. I dream so much and live so little that I'm sometimes only three years old. But the next day I'm three hundred, if the dream has been sombre.”
