Marcus Aurelius Book IV.42

Marcus Aurelius Book IV.42

“To be in the process of change is not an evil, any more than to be the product of change is a good.”

“Οὐδέν ἐστι κακὸν τοῖς ἐν μεταβολῇ γινομένοις, ὡς οὐδὲ ἀγαθὸν τοῖς ἐκ μεταβολῆς ὑφισταμένοις.

42. Nothing is evil to that which is subject to change, even as there is no good for that which exists as the result of change.”

“There is nothing bad in undergoing change — or good in emerging from it.”
