Pensées: Livres I-VI

Marcus Aurelius var kendt som filosoffen på kejsertronen, da han skrev en lang række stoiske aforismer på græsk under sine mange felttog. Aforismerne er samlet i værket Ta eis heauton (Tanker til sig selv). Hans filosofi er præget af en beskeden og værdig holdning til livets tilskikkelser. En del af hans tanker ligner kristendommens, som han i øvrigt bekæmpede. Lighederne skyldes, at også kristendommens var påvirket af stoicismen.

Tanker til sig selv

We live in an era rife with cultural conflict. The 21st century is by no means free of wars, terrorism, riots, famine, nor epidemics. We may attempt to solve the challenges of our times by uniting the humanistic disciplines of philosophy, science, and technology. Our modern reality requires a fundamental understanding of the problems beleaguering our existence. Science and literature are key tools for gaining this insight. The wisdom accumulated throughout the centuries by scientists, philosophers, and writers is a solid foundation on which modern man can build the future. Our ability to learn from those who have come before is precisely what led Protagoras to declare that "Man is the measure of all things."
