What a tiny part of the boundless abyss of time has been allotted to each of us – and this is soon vanished in eternity; what a tiny part of the universal substance and the universal soul; how tiny in the whole earth the mere clod on which you creep.Reflecting on all this, this nothing important other than active pursuit where your own nature leads and passive acceptance of what universal nature brings.
-Marcus Aurelius
