The Comedy of Mark Aurelius, Book Two
Great comedy is very specific, but thus universal. And so what i found so lovely about marcus aureliusis he's really not saying these like, you know, it really sucks when you're trying to tell the roman legions to go invade a foreign land and they don't listen. He opens both book two and book five of meditations with the feeling that you have when you wake up in the morning. They're both like, do i have to do anything to dayoh. So again, i think wat really struck me at 19, struck me,. you know, in my 20 what strikes me now?
