From Marcus Aurelius
“Well-being is good luck, good character.”
Book Seven, #17
Excerpt From: Emperor of Rome Marcus Aurelius. “Meditations.”
“17. Well-being is a good Being, or a ruling Reason that is good. What then doest thou here, O Imagination? Avaunt, in God’s name, as thou earnest, for I desire thee not! But thou art come according to thine ancient wont. I hear thee no malice; only depart from me!”
