Ott megáll, el sem csúszik, le sem esik. Ugyanígy kell értelmednek áradni és szétömleni: de nem kiapadni, hanem folyton sugárzani - a szembenálló akadályokra nem erőszakosan vagy szenvedélyesen ráfeszülni, nem esni le, hanem ott maradni, és azt, ami a fénye számára hozzáférhető, megvilágítani. Ami pedig visszautasítja, az maga magát fosztja meg a fénytől.

Marcus Aurelius: Idézetek angolul
Forward, as occasion offers. Never look round to see whether any shall note it…. Be satisfied with success in even the smallest matter, and think that even such a result is no trifle.

“Nothing happens to anyone that he can't endure. (Hays translation)”
Nothing happens to anybody which he is not fitted by nature to bear.
Οὐδὲν οὐδενὶ συμβαίνει ὃ οὐχὶ ἐκεῖνο πέφυκε φέρειν.
V, 18
Meditations (c. 121–180 AD), Book V
“Leaves, some the wind scatters on the ground—So is the race of man.”
Leaves, also, are thy children; and leaves, too, are they who cry out so if they are worthy of credit, or bestow their praise, or on the contrary curse, or secretly blame and sneer; and leaves, in like manner, are those who shall receive and transmit a man's fame to after-times. For all such things as these "are produced in the season of spring," as the poet says; then the wind casts them down; then the forest produces other leaves in their places. But a brief existence is common to all things, and yet thou avoidest and pursuest all things as if they would be eternal.
