Марк Аврелий - римский император и стоик, чье правление пришлось на «золотой век Римской империи», а его самого называли философом на троне. "Наедине с собой - собрание мыслей Марка Аврелия, созданное в конце II века н.э. Эти записи содержат рассуждения римского императора о духе, долге и совести, а также отражает его упорное стремление не только руководствоваться в своем мироощущении идеями стоицизма, но и развивать его для будущих поколений.

So unausbleiblich wie die Katze spinnt, wenn man sie streichelt, malt süße Wonne sich auf das Gesicht des Menschen, den man lobt und zwar in dem Felde seiner Prätension, sei das Lob auch handgreiflich lügenhaft. Oft trösten ihn über reales Unglück oder über die Kargheit, mit der für ihn die beiden, bis hier her abgehandelten Hauptquellen unseres Glückes fließen, die Zeichen des fremden Beifalls.

Die Grenze unserer vernünftigen Wünsche hinsichtlich des Besitzes zu bestimmen ist schwierig, wo nicht unmöglich. Denn die Zufriedenheit eines jeden, in dieser Hinsicht, beruht nicht auf einer absoluten sondern auf einer bloß relativen Größe, nämlich auf dem Verhältnis zwischen seinen Ansprüchen und seinem Besitz: daher dieser letztere, für sich allein betrachtet, so bedeutungsleer ist wie der Zähler eines Bruchs ohne den Nenner.

Was einer ist: also die Persönlichkeit, im weitesten Sinne, Sonach ist hierunter Gesundheit, Kraft, Schönheit, Temperament, moralischer Charakter, Intelligenz und Ausbildung derselben begriffen. / Was einer hat: also Eigentum und Besitz in jeglichem Sinne. / Was einer vorstellt: unter diesem Ausdruck wird bekanntlich verstanden, was er in der Vorstellung anderer ist, also eigentlich, wie er von ihnen vorgestellt wird. Es besteht demnach in ihrer Meinung von ihm, und zerfällt in Ehre, Rang und Ruhm.

"Wir treten in die Welt voll Ansprüche auf Glück und Genuss, bis das Schicksal uns unsanft packt und uns zeigt, dass nichts unser ist, sondern alles seins - da es ein unbestreitbares Recht hat nicht nur auf uns, sondern auf allen unseren Besitz und Erwerb, auch auf Arm und Bein, Auge und Ohr, ja sogar auf die Nase mitten im Gesicht."

The Greek philosopher Socrates once asked his student Phaedrus: "Where have you come from and where are you going?" These two simple questions are at the heart of "real" Greek philosophy. We all want to know where the universe came from, and what is our place in it. We also want to choose the best, most fulfilling and happiest life for ourselves in the years ahead.

Grandes líderes, pensadores, artistas, atletas e visionários têm uma característica em comum: a capacidade de alcançar a quietude. Cínicos às vezes a confundem com ociosidade e indecisão, mas a verdade é que a quietude é a chave para ter autodomínio, disciplina e foco. É impossível avançar na vida sem ela.

Is there a magic formula to determine if someone is going to make it straight to the top? As I study and learn about the life of various ultra-successful people in their respective fields, I've realized that all of them are different in a lot of areas, but there is one particular aspect that is common to them all - they are all believers of self-improvement.
