Our rational nature moves freely forward in its impressions when it: 1) accepts nothing false or uncertain; 2) directs its impulses only to acts for the common good; 3) limits its desires and aversions only to what's in its own power; 4) embraces everything nature assigns it.

 

— Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 8.7 (resource) Ryan Holiday, The 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living
