Meditations VI.32

I consist of body and soul.⁴⁰ To the body indeed all things are indifferent, for it cannot concern itself with them. But to the mind⁴¹ only those things are indifferent which are not its own activities; and all those things that are its own activities are in its own power. Howbeit, of these it is only concerned with the present; for as to its activities in the past and the future, these two rank at once among things indifferent.
