Using meditations

Overview

View the wisdom of Marcus Aurelius through his quotes from his book Meditations.

Installation

You can install meditations from github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jacobkap/meditations")

Example

This is how to use this simple package. meditations() will print a random quote from the book.

meditations::meditations()
#> [1] "He who flies from his master is a runaway; but the law is master, and he who breaks the law is a runaway. And he also who is grieved or angry or afraid, is dissatisfied because something has been or is or shall be of the things which are appointed by him who rules all things, and he is Law, and assigns to every man what is fit. He then who fears or is grieved or is angry is a runaway."

Choose a number between 1 and 507 (there are only 507 quotes) and it will print that specific quote(s).

meditations::meditations(263)
#> [1] "Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig."
