Meditations IV.18
What richness of leisure doth he gain who has no eye for his neighbour’s words or deeds or thoughts,28 but only for his own doings, that they be just and righteous! Verily it is not for the good man to peer about into the blackness of another’s heart,29 but to ‘run straight for the goal with never a glance aside.’
