@EM-ig7ib 4 года назад

I see... Well. To remain in line with the philosophical views of the Emporer I suggest you spend 2,000 hours listening to Ronnie James Dio's music in order to gain perspective and balance.

@@anthonye44 "No Dice" is an unfortunate response. What I described to you was not a game of chance. Dice would be useless in the execution of my instructions. Anthony . . please do not mistake my cordial suggestion for anything other than unsolicited politeness. .Symbolic to that of an "Olive Branch" . . . An attempt at "diplomacy" . ..

Had humanity turned out to be more like Marcus Aurelius and Carl Jung there would be no need of antinatalism. So rare and beautiful. The rest of us would be ashamed of ourselves had we any sense. Which we don't. Rocky, I suspect you might also be one of the rare ones. Thanks for all your efforts.

@Lawh 3 года назад

I want to hear about his policies and some examples of his leadership, since I have gone through the general basic information about his life and how he ended up where he did. If someone can point me to a video about a more thorough look into his life, I would really appreciate it. If one is not available, I can do some reading later on, and perhaps ever record the things I find interesting about him.

@marcusaurelius820 6 лет назад

Rocky C lol thank you bro. I like it alot. Yeah he was very nice. Have you listen to the meditation audiobook its great and its very interesting how his son was the completely opposite. His son was ruthless af

@marcusaurelius820 6 лет назад

Rocky C i only listen to half of the meditation audiobook because its long af lol. Before you upload this. I was watching a video about Marcus Aurelius son and his son like to take crippled ppl and kill them to act like Hercules that shit is crazy af. Its so interesting that they were different. Do you think his son thought Marcus Aurelius kindness was weakness so thats why his son was ruthless af?

@marcusaurelius820 6 лет назад

Rocky C yeah i know it makes him look like a prick but i am talking about his point of view tho. Maybe he felt strong when he was doing it and yeah pretty much all Roman emperors went crazy af with their power. Nero lol

@marcusaurelius820 6 лет назад

"To expect a bad man, to do good, is Insane!" He said, supported me through the last leadership of the USA. Marcus's quest for being a decent leader, is opposite of what's going on in the Republican party, so I switched. Never thought I would.

Dear RU-vid, Please discover someone with some background in your subject matter with, at least, some knowledge of contextual semantics before they attempt to furnish your subtitles. From the evidence, so far, your staff possess neither; resulting in a preponderance of sheer gibberish!!!
