Meditations - Marcus Aurelius

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius is the private journal of the Roman Emperor, never intended for publication. Written during his military campaigns, it offers a window into the mind of one of history’s most powerful men grappling with the same questions we all face.

# Key Takeaways
