The soul becomes dyed with the colour of its thoughts. - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

"When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love ..."

"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature."

"We must make haste then, not only because we are daily nearer to death, but also because the conception of things and the understanding of them cease first."

"Don't go on discussing what a good person should be. Just be one."

"Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth."
