  7 1 |           that, so far as depended on the gods, and their~gifts,

  9 1 |            I did not waste my~time on writers of histories, or
 10 2 |           them, for no one~can fix on me what is ugly, nor can

 12 2 |           committed~with pain; and on the whole the one is more
 13 2 |          and, as it were, a tumour on the universe, so far~as
 14 3 |            he will be able to look~on with chaste eyes; and many
 15 3 |         after so many speculations on the~conflagration of the
 16 3 |      nature; and a man should hold on to the~opinion not of all,
 17 3 |            which produces opinion. On this faculty it~entirely
 18 3 |            now makes an impression on me, and what virtue I~have
 19 3 |           and the rest. Wherefore, on every~occasion a man should

 21 4 |         the chaos of infinite time on~each side of the present,

 23 4 |      answer which a man might give on the hypothesis of souls
 24 4 |           bodies of those who feed on them! And~nevertheless this
 25 4 |            respect to~justice, and on the occasion of every impression
 26 4 |            uneasiness. Accordingly on every occasion a~man should

 28 4 |         for~life. He is an abscess on the universe who withdraws
 29 4 |            to-morrow, or certainly~on the day after to-morrow,
 30 4 |           care much whether it was~on the third day or on the
 31 4 |            was~on the third day or on the morrow, unless thou
 32 4 |           after endless discourses on death or~immortality; how
 33 4 |          it, and thanking the~tree on which it grew.~ Be like
 34 4 |           continued free from pain on such an occasion. Why~then
 35 4 |           is its own? Remember too on every occasion which leads
 36 5 |            regard, but go straight on, following thy own~nature
 37 5 |        which bears me when I tread on it and abuse it~for so many
 38 5 |          come and see, but he goes~on to another act, as a vine
 39 5 |        another act, as a vine goes on to produce again the grapes
 40 5 |            rain, O dear Zeus, down on the~ploughed fields of the
 41 5 |        fields of the Athenians and on the plains.- In truth we~
 42 5 |          he would not have brought on any man what he has brought,
 43 5 |            all things which~depend on the faculty of understanding
 44 5 |     pursuit, I cannot imagine. But on the~contrary it is a man'
 45 5 |         now employing my own soul? On every occasion I~must ask
 46 5 |         said fitly and wittily. Go on then and ask if we~should
 47 5 |            of the universe, and so on for ever. And by consequence~
 48 5 |         those who begot me, and so on for~ever in the other direction.
 49 5 |          that which is an~obstacle on the road helps us on this
 50 5 |      obstacle on the road helps us on this road.~ Reverence that
 51 5 |          When thou art calling out on the Rostra, hast thou forgotten,
 52 6 |          is, and what~it does, and on what material it works.~
 53 6 |          this flowing stream then, on which there~is no abiding,
 54 6 |          the things which hurry by on which a~man would set a
 55 6 |           observed it goes happily on its road.~ How strangely
 56 6 |           this they set much value on. But this is very much the~
 57 6 | treacherous fellow; and yet we are on~our guard against him, not
 58 6 |            in a social spirit. And on all~occasions call on the
 59 6 |          And on all~occasions call on the gods, and do not perplex
 60 6 |        angry too?~Wilt thou not go on with composure and number
 61 6 |          are angry with thee to go~on thy way and finish that
 62 6 |       patient; and how he was~able on account of his sparing diet
 63 7 |          thou hast often seen. And on the~occasion of everything
 64 7 |            business of show, plays on the stage, flocks of sheep,~
 65 7 |           a soldier in the assault on a town. How then, if being
 66 7 |            thou canst not mount up on the battlements alone, but
 67 7 |          fall externally what will on the parts which can feel~
 68 7 |            the heaps of sand piled on~one another hide the former
 69 7 |           these things go straight on, and it~has what is its
 70 7 |          material for thee to work on. Only attend to thyself,
 71 7 |           gods, neither idly vexed on account of men's villainy,
 72 7 |       usual and apt matter to work on.~ The perfection of moral
 73 8 |          what has been mentioned.~ On the occasion of every act
 74 8 |            fixed thy eyes steadily on thy business look at it,
 75 8 |           with itself when it goes on its way~well; and a rational
 76 8 |         and a rational nature goes on its way well, when in its
 77 8 |            and, if it be possible, on the occasion of every~impression
 78 8 |       occasion of every~impression on the soul, apply to it the
 79 8 |            that which is inscribed on the tombs- The last of~his
 80 8 |         expect to befall thee: but on every occasion ask thyself,~
 81 8 |         not being done~depends not on thee.- But it is not worth
 82 8 |         unhappiness may not depend on another.~ The sun appears
 83 9 |            present opinion founded on understanding, and thy present~
 84 9 |          Fire indeed moves upwards on account~of the elemental
 85 9 |         attainment of those things on which~they set a value.~
 86 9 |        ever. For if a man reflects on~the changes and transformations
 87 9 |            the smallest thing goes~on well, and consider such
 88 9 |       pride.~ Look down from above on the countless herds of men
 89 9 |           nor, says he, did I talk on such subjects to~those who
 90 9 |           I continued to discourse on the nature of~things as
 91 9 |            in such movements as go on in the poor flesh, shall
 92 9 |          an opportunity of putting on solemn looks,~as if they
 93 9 |            great, but my life went on well and~happily. Do, then,
 94 9 |  philosophy; but to be intent only on~that which thou art now
 95 9 |       which thou art now doing and on the instrument by which
 96 10|        respect to which it~depends on thy own opinion to make
 97 10|            done so, life must flow on~happily, just as thou mayest
 98 10|      another person and~wilt enter on another life. For to continue
 99 10|          it is~thy duty so to look on and so to do everything,
100 10|       other things oppose thee, go on~according to thy powers
101 10|    bestowing their praise or blame on others, are such as they~
102 10|           to thee of life. Live as on a~mountain. For it makes
103 10|           are the same with things on top of~a mountain, or on
104 10|           on top of~a mountain, or on the sea-shore, or wherever
105 10|            as in a shepherd's fold on a mountain.~ What is my
106 10|        cause takes it, and labours on it and makes a child. What
107 10|            this pig also is he who on his bed in silence laments
108 10|      follow is a~necessity imposed on all.~ Severally on the occasion
109 10|         imposed on all.~ Severally on the occasion of everything
110 10|          and when~thou hast looked on thyself, think of any other
111 10|             some the wind scatters on the ground-~ So is the race
112 10|            bestow their praise, or on~the contrary curse, or secretly
113 10|           benevolent~and mild, and on the other hand not as if
114 10|        thyself as much as possible on the occasion of anything~
115 11|         Thou wilt set little value on pleasing song and dancing
116 11|       first tragedies were brought on the stage as means of reminding~
117 11|       delighted with~what is shown on the stage, you should not
118 11|        with that which~takes place on the larger stage. For you
119 11|      feelings towards them, but be on thy guard equally in~both
120 11|        ought to be plainly written on the forehead. Such as a
121 11|           indifferent, if it looks on each of these things separately
122 11|           pass a correct judgement on another man's acts.~ Sixth,
123 11|            of another~brings shame on thee: for unless that which
124 11|          much more pain is brought on us by the anger~and vexation
125 11|        thou shouldst be constantly on thy guard, and when thou
126 11|     shouldst wipe them out and say on each occasion~thus: this
127 11|            yet no force is imposed on it,~but only those things
128 12|    unexpected, and to be dependent on this or that.~ God sees
129 12|            but yet sets less value on his own opinion~of himself
130 12|            opinion~of himself than on the opinion of others. If
131 12|             and shouldst look down~on human things, and observe
