The last of Rome's Five Good Emperors and a Stoic philosopher, Marcus Aurelius wrote his private 'Meditations' on duty, humility, and reason — a book read as a moral guide nearly two thousand years later.
He filled a private notebook with Stoic humility and mercy — and as emperor spent most of his reign at war on the frontiers and let the persecution of Christians proceed under Roman law. The philosopher of inner peace ruled an empire by the sword and, breaking with his predecessors, handed it to his own unfit son Commodus. Serenity on the page, the legions in the field.
“You have power over your own mind — not outside events; master the one and endure the other.”
