Marcus Aurelius' Skill in Aphorisms and Writing

Marcus Aurelius is considered the greatest writer of all the Stoics for his ability to express ideas in a captivating and clear manner through aphorisms. His vague yet abstract writing style allows readers to relate the philosophical concepts to their own lives. Despite not having extensive speeches or letters, his aphorisms are memorable and timeless, with people even getting them tattooed on themselves. Marcus' skill in articulating complex ideas with vivid imagery and clear language demonstrates his mastery in the art of writing, honed through years of training in Greek rhetoric.
