Stoic Snippets 21


As surgeons keep their instruments and knives always at hand for cases requiring immediate treatment, so should you have your thoughts ready to understand things divine and human, remembering in your every act, even the smallest, how close is the bond that unites the two. 

—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 3.13
