"If anyone can refute me‚ show me I'm making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective‚ I'll gladly change. It's the truth I'm after." Marcus Aurelius
I just discovered this quote for the first time this morning. It makes a lot of sense to me. I've lived all my life having a strong opinion, but at the same time, I take responsibility for my wrongs.
The question of the post,
Does the fact that Marcus Aurelius was a slave owner have an effect on the meanings of his teachers that do not reference the issues of slaver ? Such as this one.
