Meditation 8.8-9
Marcus AureliusMeditationsBook 8.8
8. You are not able to read; but you are able to restrain your arrogance, you are able to rise above pleasures and pains, you are able to be superior to fame, you are able not only not to be angry with the unfeeling and graceless, but to care for them besides.
9. Let no one any longer hear you finding fault with your life in a palace; nay, do not even hear yourself.
