Uit 'A Psalm of Life' van Henry Wadsworth Longfellow :

Lives of great men all remind us

We can make our lives sublime,

And, departing, leave behind us

Footprints on the sands of time;

The world seems to be going crazy…and it’s trying to take you with it.

But here’s the thing: You can’t let it.

Marcus Aurelius, who faced what might have been even darker times than our own—a devastating plague killing millions, a coup attempt by one of his most trusted generals, the empire literally crumbling at its edges—was constantly reminding himself of this. Constantly writing to himself: Don’t become implicated in the ugliness. Don’t let it infect you. Don’t become cynical or bitter. “Take care,” he writes in Book 7 of Meditations, “that you don’t treat inhumanity as it treats human beings.”

Or to put it a more colloquial and modern way: Don’t let the sonsofbitches turn you into a sonuvabitch. Don’t let crazy times make you a crazy person.
