Meditation of an emperor
The thoughts of marcus aurelius
Marcus Aurelius, Elbert Hubbard, &Al.
Résumé
Though professing philosophy as his guide in life and following her rule, Marcus Aurelus makes no pretence to learning or wisdom for himself.
"I have learned from my grandfather Verus : the lessons of noble character and even temper.
From my father's reputation and my memory of him: modesty and manliness.
From my mother: piety and bountifulness, to keep myself not only from doing evil but even from dwelling on evil thoughts, simplicity too in diet and to be far removed from the ways of the rich.
From my mother's grandfather: not to have attended public schools but enjoyed good teachers at home, and to have learned the lesson that on things like these it is a duty to spend liberally.
From my tutor: not to become a partisan of the Green jacket or the Blue in the races, nor of Thracian or Samnite gladiators; to bear pain and be content with little; to work with my own hands, to mind my own business, and to be slow to listen to slander."
