In August, I posted one of my favorite Steve Job's quotes. In honor of the passing of this innovative, driven, and hopeful leader, I share with you words from the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
Do not therefore consider this life as an object of any moment. Look back on the immense gulf of time already past; and forwards, to that infinite duration yet to come, and you will find how trifling the difference is between a life of three days and of three ages.
Let us then employ properly this moment of time allotted us by fate, and leave the world contentedly; like a ripe olive dropping from its stalk, speaking well of the soil that produced it, and of the tree that bore it.
-Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
