Annotated text of the Meditations of Roman Emperor MARCUS AURELIUS. The Meditations are his only written work. Marcus titled the work ""To Himself"", but it is not known if he intended to make it public. His philosophy retraces the Stoic attitude. The book is considered one of the literary and philosophical masterpieces of all time (Wikipedia)
