2. Memento Mori (5.26.25)

"To live each day as if it were your last without speeding up or slowing down or pretending to be other than what you are-this is perfection of character." (Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 7.69)

"Death holds no terrors for the man who calls good whatever happens in good season, who cares more that his acts are reasonable than that they are many, and to whom it matters not whether his view of the world is long or short-lived." (Marcus Aurelius, 12.36)
