"Men speak opinions, not facts. Our eyes see perspective, not truth."

Marcus Aurelius Antoninus was Roman emperor from 161 to 180 AD and a Stoic philosopher. 

[vedicshastras]

"The written law and the customs were being corrupted at an astounding rate. The result was that I, who had first been full of eagerness for a public career, as I gazed upon the whirlpool of public life and saw the incessant movement of shifting currents, at last felt dizzy, and, while I did not cease to consider means of improving this particular situation and indeed of reforming the whole constitution, yet, in regard to action, I kept waiting for favorable moments, and finally saw clearly in regard to all states now existing that without exception their system of government is bad. Their constitutions are almost beyond redemption except through some miraculous plan accompanied by good luck. hence I was forced to say in praise of the correct philosophy that it affords a vantage point from which we can discern in all cases what is just for communities and for individuals, and that accordingly the human race will not see better days until either the stock of those who rightly and genuinely follow philosophy acquire political authority, or else the class who have political control be led by some dispensation of providence to become real philosophers." - Plato from his work The Seventh Letter ________________________________________ For Astrology & Numerology Consultations call now on [phone] Follow @vedic.shastras Artist: ell_4 #onephilosophia #philosophia #plato #philosopherking #platonicphilosophy #platonicphilosopher #platonism #neoplatonism #neoplatonic #neoplatonist #ancientphilosophy (at Vedic Shastras) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCaVXh_F3z5/?igshid=8yu2p9nd8a14
