Stoic Snippets 54


Do not then consider life a thing of any value. For look to the immensity of time behind you, and to the time which is before you, another boundless space. 

In this infinity, then, what is the difference between him who lives three days and him who lives three generations?

—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 4.50
