An older translation of the first lines of the thirty-fifth section of the sixth book of Meditations: "Fit and accommodate thyself to that estate and to those occurrences, which by the destinies have been annexed unto thee; and love those men whom thy fate it is to live with; but love them truly."
This quote seems often to be rendered into a more modern English style as, "Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart."
