Marcus Aurelius. Alone (№ 461929)

The approval of not all people is valuable, but only those living according to nature. He [the man who never abandons his care to be among the best] never loses sight of what those who live differently from the way they live at home and outside the home, at night and during the day, and with whom, are like. and what kind of friendship they lead. And he does not value the praise of people who do not satisfy themselves.
