More from Cicero & related wisdom
Imagination is an infinite resource that cannot be diminished by overuse or underuse.
A man's own observation, what he find good of, and what he finds hurt of, is the best physic to preserve health.
To make the right choices in life, you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude, which most people are afraid of, because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions.
Health is not to be mistaken for mere existence. It is the balance of the body, mind and self... there rests the mind. If the breath scatters, the mind wanders. If mind wanders, the breath scatters. So still the breath to still the mind. Mind is the king.
If you would get exercise, go in search of the springs of life.
