- "Be tolerant with others and strict with yourself." — Marcus Aurelius
- "Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now take what's left and live it properly." — Marcus Aurelius
- One of the most powerful passages in Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations":
- When you're lacking motivation, remind yourself: discipline now, freedom later. The labor will pass, and the rewards will last.
- Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity.
- "You become what you give your attention to." — Epictetus
- "For no man is free who is a slave to his body." — Seneca
- “Be satisfied with even the smallest progress." —— Marcus Aurelius
- Ego Is The Enemy. You’re not as good as you think. You don’t have it all figured out. Stay focused. Do better.
- “We suffer more in imaginaton than in reality.” — Seneca
