Meditations 10.5

Whatever may happen to thee, it was prepared for thee from all eternity; and the implication of causes was from eternity spinning the thread of thy being, and of that which is incident to it.

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 10.5, translated by George Long

Whatever befalls thee was set in train for thee from everlasting, and the iiiterplication of causes was from eternity weaving into one fabric thy existence and the coincidence of this event.

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 10.5, translated by C. R. Haines
