Keep thyself then simple, good, pure, serious, free from
affectation, a friend of justice, a worshiper of the gods, kind,
affectionate, strenuous in all proper acts. Strive to continue
to be such as philosophy wished to make thee. Reverence
the gods, and help men. Short is life.
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, Book 6, Verse 30 (excerpt)
