1124 4 | then further~that the mind mingles not with the breath, whether
1125 3 | best, is like a priest and minister of the gods, using~too the
1126 1 | credit to what was said by miracle-workers and jugglers about~incantations

1134 4 | the third day or on the morrow, unless thou wast in the

1137 7 | as if it were~wax, now moulds a horse, and when it has
1138 7 | being lame~thou canst not mount up on the battlements alone,
1139 4 | country, sea-shores,~and mountains; and thou too art wont to
1140 4 | with the breath, whether moving gently or~violently, when
1141 4 | what was yesterday a little mucus to-morrow will be a mummy
1142 6 | of the things which the multitude admire are referred to~objects
1143 4 | mucus to-morrow will be a mummy or~ashes. Pass then through
1144 5 | integrity of the~whole is mutilated, if thou cuttest off anything
1145 5 | prescribed to this man disease or~mutilation or loss or anything else
1146 9 | it is of the nature of a mutiny, just as when in a popular
1147 4 | such as generation is, a mystery of nature; a composition~
1148 6 | man has torn thee with his~nails, and by dashing against
1149 8 | light passing through a~narrow opening into a darkened
1150 4 | to give~praise, and the narrowness of the space within which
1151 12| to be a stranger in thy~native land, and to wonder at things
1152 12| begun to live~according to nature- then thou wilt be a man
1153 10| several thing and freedom from~negligence; and that Equanimity is
1154 12| to cry and the horse to~neigh, and whatever else must

1162 1 | express approbation without noisy~display, and he possessed
1163 6 | if they determine about nothing- which it is wicked to~believe,
1164 4 | but this is a very vulgar notion.~ Thou wilt soon die, and

1166 7 | at things,~ For they care nought about it.~ ~ To the immortal
1167 1 | thoughts or action, nor~love of novelty. And the things which conduce
1168 5 | mother the blood, and my~nurse the milk; out of which during
1169 9 | herds of cattle, and the nurture of young birds, and in a
1170 3 | dotage, perspiration and nutrition~and imagination and appetite,
1171 3 | having need neither of oath nor of any~man's testimony.
1172 5 | according to nature.- It may be objected,~Why what is more agreeable
1173 10| nothing in fact in~the way of objection to what is said.~ When thou
1174 1 | released his friends from all obligation to sup with him or to~attend
1175 12| pious acts and religious~observances have been most intimate
1176 2 | nothing more from him who observes these things.~ Do wrong
1177 4 | the ground, flattering,~obstinately arrogant, suspecting, plotting,
1178 7 | And let the same thought occur to~thee with reference to
1179 7 | if when they do wrong it occurs to thee that they are~kinsmen,
1180 8 | now thou hast cut thyself off- yet here there~is this beautiful
1181 2 | contraction; but he who offends~through desire, being overpowered
1182 5 | to discover wherein he~offends- I wish thee well of thy
1183 1 | himself~agreeable without any offensive affectation. He took a reasonable
1184 1 | which, if opportunity had offered, might have~led me to do
1185 11| and if, as opportunity offers, thou gently~admonishest
1186 8 | bathing appears to thee- oil, sweat, dirt, filthy water,~
1187 9 | life lived by others in~olden time, and the life of those
1188 10| from thy experience or from older~history; for example, the
1189 4 | journey in content, just as an olive falls off~when it is ripe,
1190 5 | truth are fled~ ~ Up to Olympus from the wide-spread earth.~ ~
1191 5 | for this reason thou wilt~omit any social act.~ A prayer
1192 7 | stand ready and firm to meet onsets~which are sudden and unexpected.~
1193 8 | inquiry, moves straight onward not the less, and to its
1194 8 | passing through a~narrow opening into a darkened room, for
1195 3 | thy thoughts? With~perfect openness thou mightest, immediately
1196 7 | more expert in casting his opponent; but he is not~more social,
1197 12| philosophical~it is for a man in the opportunities presented to him to show.~
1198 11| submit, but is carried in the opposite direction. For the~movement
1199 1 | delivering little hortatory orations, nor to showing~myself off
1200 6 | there are~so many great orators, and so many noble philosophers,
1201 11| atoms, it is~nature which orders all things: if this is so,
1202 6 | together by~cohesion or natural organization, such as stones, wood, fig-trees,~
1203 5 | never stand still, and the organs of~perception are dull and
1204 6 | Philistion and Phoebus and Origanion. Now turn thy thoughts to
1205 9 | them by virtue of a certain original movement of Providence,~
1206 5 | manner had reference to thee,~originally from the most ancient causes
1207 3 | distraction; nor let studied~ornament set off thy thoughts, and
1208 1 | possessed much knowledge without ostentation.~ From Alexander the grammarian,
1209 4 | warfare,~and all artifice and ostentatious display.~
1210 8 | Such then ought to~be the out-pouring and diffusion of the understanding,
1211 1 | about in the~house in my outdoor dress, nor to do other things
1212 6 | which they are~exalted. For outward show is a wonderful perverter
1213 3 | useless, but most of all the over-curious feeling and the malignant;~
1214 1 | And I observed that he had overcome all passion for~boys; and
1215 10| very stupid man and one overfond of his life,~and like those
1216 6 | other parts of life; let us overlook~many things in those who
1217 1 | assent~to those who talk overmuch; and I am indebted to him
1218 12| man should be~when he is overtaken by death; and consider the
1219 3 | life incomplete when fate overtakes him, as one may say of an
1220 7 | them accustom thyself to overvalue them, so as to be~disturbed
1221 7 | everything is very soon~overwhelmed in time.~ To the rational
1222 1 | everything good. Further, I owe it to the gods~that I was
1223 1 | be easily disposed to be~pacified and reconciled, as soon
1224 9 | and dost thou seek to be paid for~it? Just as if the eye
1225 10| above the~pleasurable or painful sensations of the flesh,
1226 3 | pleasure than those which~painters and sculptors show by imitation;
1227 12| principles thou must be like the~pancratiast, not like the gladiator;
1228 8 | against even~this.~ Does Panthea or Pergamus now sit by the
1229 1 | a partizan either of the Parmularius~or the Scutarius at the
1230 1 | same things; and after his paroxysms of~headache he came immediately
1231 9 | point, how the mind, while~participating in such movements as go
1232 6 | the act of separating and~parting with the useless part of
1233 1 | games in the Circus, nor a partizan either of the Parmularius~
1234 1 | the green nor of the blue party~at the games in the Circus,
1235 10| material! Again, the child passes food down through the throat,~
1236 1 | fighting, nor to give myself up passionately~to such things; and to endure
1237 12| grown about thee;~for the passive part will look to this.
1238 1 | are rather deficient in paternal affection.~ From Alexander
1239 6 | servants; and how laborious and patient; and how he was~able on
1240 1 | among us who are~called Patricians are rather deficient in
1241 6 | been enjoyed by robbers, patricides,~tyrants.~ Dost thou not
1242 10| everything that thou doest, pause and~ask thyself, if death
1243 8 | individual's nature is also more~peculiarly its own, and more suitable
1244 1 | home-bred flippant slave or a pedant; but~every one acknowledged
1245 1 | resolute and yielding, and not peevish in giving his instruction;~
1246 10| shuttle, and the writer's pen and the driver's whip.~
1247 10| citizen.~ To him who is penetrated by true principles even
1248 5 | of great concern to~these people- wilt thou too then be made
1249 2 | his neighbours,~without perceiving that it is sufficient to
1250 8 | itself.~ Hindrance to the perceptions of sense is an evil to the
1251 11| Socrates excused himself to Perdiccas for not going to him,~saying,
1252 5 | hope of health. Let the~perfecting and accomplishment of the
1253 3 | and without~any compulsion perfectly reconciled to his lot.~
1254 11| been fixed in any place perforce they remain there until
1255 3 | what kind of use everything~performs in it, and what value everything
1256 8 | even~this.~ Does Panthea or Pergamus now sit by the tomb of Verus?
1257 9 | which~they set a value.~ The periodic movements of the universe
1258 11| embraces and~comprehends the periodical renovation of all things,
1259 2 | to all, though that which perishes~is not the same; and so
1260 9 | attach us to life, to be permitted to live~with those who have
1261 8 | then shalt thou possess a perpetual fountain and not a~mere
1262 6 | on the gods, and do not perplex thyself about the~length
1263 1 | off~doing a thing, nor was perplexed nor dejected, nor did he
1264 1 | and a love of labour and perseverance; and a readiness to listen
1265 10| things which happen in life?~Persevere then until thou shalt have
1266 8 | with freedom as it is to persist in thy~error. For it is
1267 1 | of deliberation, and his persistency, and that he never~stopped
1268 1 | life, nor~out of regard to personal appearance, nor yet in a
1269 3 | begin to fall into dotage, perspiration and nutrition~and imagination
1270 3 | own acts fair, and he is persuaded that his own portion is~
1271 3 | thou do anything well which pertains to man without at the same
1272 8 | the chief thing: Be not perturbed, for all things are~according
1273 6 | outward show is a wonderful perverter of the reason,~and when
1274 3 | themselves into women, and to a~Phalaris and a Nero: and to have
1275 9 | Philip and Demetrius of~Phalerum. They themselves shall judge
1276 6 | thoughts come down even to~Philistion and Phoebus and Origanion.
1277 11| life~so well suited for philosophising as this in which thou now~
1278 11| honestly, like the great~Phocion, unless indeed he only assumed
1279 6 | down even to~Philistion and Phoebus and Origanion. Now turn
1280 8 | to it the principles of Physic, of~Ethic, and of Dialectic.~
1281 7 | that as the heaps of sand piled on~one another hide the
1282 7 | times it is in thy power piously to~acquiesce in thy present
1283 9 | yet as one who would be~pitied or admired: but direct thy
1284 6 | what kind of workmen thou placest thyself; for he who rules~
1285 5 | puffed up with such things or plagued about them and~makes himself
1286 11| speech, and by its very plainness of speaking was useful in~
1287 5 | the Athenians and on the plains.- In truth we~ought not
