Marcus Aurelius Quotes

Nothing is constant but change! All existence is a perpetual flux of "being and becoming!" That is the broad lesson of the evolution of the world.

Everything is only for a day, both that which remembers and that which is remembered. Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are and to make new things like them. For everything that exists is in a manner the seed of that which will be.

The only thing that never changes is that everything changes.

And if things always stayed the same, Scarlett, what would be the reason for bothering to draw breath?

Human beings are works in progress that mistakenly think they’re finished. The person you are right now is as transient, as fleeting and as temporary as all the people you’re ever been. The one constant in our lives is change.

Life is a process. We are a process. The universe is a process.

Nothing endures but change.

It's very easy to think that the way things are is the way things will stay, and life just isn't like that.

I believe the only thing constant in life is change. That's just the way it is, no?

Like the seasons of the year, life changes frequently and drastically. You enjoy it or endure it as it comes and goes, as it ebbs and flows.

As long as you are a part of the physical process of the existence, there is nothing that does not change.

Nothing lasts forever but the certainty of change

Nothing is permanent but change.

Nothing is, everything is becoming.

Nothing that is can pause or stay; / The moon will wax, the moon will wane, / The mist and cloud will turn to rain, / The rain to mist and cloud again, / Tomorrow be today.

This was what it meant to be human, to know that time moved and all things changed.

Change is the nature of all objective things.

If things were not impermanent, life would not be possible.

Impermanence is not something to be afraid of. It's the evolution, a never-ending horizon.

You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little bit. And then it turns out some other way.

Things couldn't stay the same forever.

While we flatter ourselves that things remain the same, they are changing under our very eyes from year to year, from day to day.

Nought endures but change.

Thats the beautiful thing about being human: Things change.

Nothing remains the same from one moment to the next, you can't step into the same river twice. Life--evolution--the whole universe of space/time, matter/energy--existence itself--is essentially change.
