*''For nowhere does a man retreat into more quiet or more privacy than into his own mind, especially one who has within such things that he has only to look into, and become at once in perfect ease; and by ease I mean nothing else but good behaviour.

But let them be brief and fundamental '''truths''', which will suffice at once by their presence to wash away all sorrow, and to send you back without repugnance to the life to which you return.'' (Marcus Aurelius.
