The Future

Never let the future disturb your life. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121 AD - 180 AD), Meditations, 200 A.D

*like*

I have his book of meditations. One of those books I like to just open at random every now and then and read a single one.

Very nice. I like this quote from Wikipedia on the Meditations: "An order or logos permeates existence. Rationality and clear-mindedness allow one to live in harmony with the logos. This allows one to rise above faulty perceptions of 'good' and 'bad'." A nice thought to keep with me through the day.
