It’s All In How You See It | Judge Yourself Not Others

It’s fascinating to think of all these different translators sitting down and seeing this same bit of writing and having such wildly different interpretations. How much each one was a reflection of their time and place, how much room there was for personality, for re-creation, and re-imagination and yet also still, how the same essential truth comes through.

So it goes with philosophy and with life. Nothing, not even philosophy, is completely objective. It’s all in how you see it. It’s in what you need to see in it. It’s about what you do with it.

We happen to think that the Gregory Hays translation is the best and that’s why we worked with him to put out what we think is the absolutely best edition of Meditations. It was designed in the U.S. by Ryan Holiday and made in the U.K., and features:

Genuine leather from the best Bible manufacturer in the United Kingdom. This edition includes a gold foil-stamped leather cover, gilded-edge pages printed on premium-grade paper.
Custom illustrations to delineate each section.
Custom gold foil-stamped box to protect your copy.
In-depth biography on the life of Marcus Aurelius written by Ryan Holiday from his book Lives Of The Stoics.
