"Every minute think steadily as a Roman and a man to do what you have in hand with perfect and simple dignity, and with a feeling of affection and of freedom, and of justice, and to keep yourself free of all other thoughts. You will keep yourself free of other thoughts if you do every act as though it were your last, and if you put aside all carelessness and passionate aversion from the dictates of reason, and hypocrisy and self-love and discontent with your station in life." ~ M. Aurelius Antoninus, adapted from the George Long translation.
