Meditations, II, 15
Chapter 15 of Book II of the Meditations. First the passage as Stoïque shows it, after Long, 1862; then the whole chapter, word for word, in that edition, and the same chapter in French.
The passage in the app
Remember that everything is opinion.
— MARCUS AURELIUS · MEDITATIONS, II, 15
After Long, 1862 — modernized.
On the widgets
Remember that everything is opinion.

Remember that everything is opinion.
— MEDITATIONS II, 15
As on the Home Screen and the Lock Screen: the passage, then its reference, glued to the bottom. The reference never leaves the composition, even in the smallest family.
The whole chapter in Long’s 1862 edition
Remember that all is opinion. For what was said by the Cynic Monimus is manifest: and manifest too is the use of what was said, if a man receives what may be got out of it as far as it is true.

In French
« Que tout n’est qu’opinion. » La pensée du cynique Monimos est évidente, et son utilité évidente aussi, pourvu que l’on en retire, dans la limite de ce qu’elle a de vrai, la leçon salutaire.

Que tout soit opinion, c’est ce qui ressort avec la dernière évidence des démonstrations de Monime, le Cynique ; et l’utilité de son système n’est pas moins évidente, si l’on sait faire la part de ce qu’il contient de vraiment profond.
