I always loved browsing such posts on reddit, so thought I should make one on lemmy too

Edit: Usually these kind of posts only used to have excerpts from books or ancient proverbs, but now I am seeing a lot more quotes from shows/movies/games are also resonating with people. It's pretty cool to see.

Anyone who appreciates this one and hasn't read the entirety of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations (compiled into book form) really should. Many gems of stoic wisdom therein.
