Stoic Snippets 112


How can our principles become dead, unless the impressions which correspond to them are extinguished? 

But it is in your power continuously to fan these thoughts into a flame.

I can have that opinion about anything which I ought to have. 

If I can, why am I disturbed?

—Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.2
