No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him. We were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of teeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural. You will realize that there is no need to be racked with anxiety that they should hold any particular opinion about you.
The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good. Please enter a number less than or equal to 1. Select a valid country. Please enter 5 or 9 numbers for the ZIP Code. Handling time.

In addition, neither praise nor criticism from others is important because neither affects the intrinsic value of whatever, or whoever, is being judged and evaluated.
Look at the following Marcus Aurelius quotes on this issue:. We all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own. It can only ruin your life only if it ruins your character. Otherwise it cannot harm you—inside or out. The tranquility that comes when you stop caring what they say. Or think, or do. Only what you do. They are inescapable.
Just try to escape your own. To wonder what so-and-so is doing and why, or what he is saying, or thinking, or scheming—in a word, anything that distracts you from fidelity to the ruler within you—means a loss of opportunity for some other task. The abyss of endless time that swallows it all. The emptiness of those applauding hands. The people who praise us; how capricious they are, how arbitrary.
And the tiny region it takes place. The whole earth a point in space. Praise is extraneous. The object of praise remains what it is—no better and no worse. Does anything genuinely beautiful need supplementing?
