Principles

"In applying one’s principles in conduct, one should be like the boxer, not the swordsman; for the latter lays by his sword and takes it up again, but the boxer’s hand is always with him and he has nothing to do but double up his fist."

Marcus Aurelius, The Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, Book XII
