Pliny the Elder was a Roman author, naturalist, and philosopher, renowned for his comprehensive work 'Natural History'. Born in 23 AD, he was a member of the Roman nobility and held various public offices, including military and administrative roles. His encyclopedic work is a cornerstone of classical literature, offering extensive insights into the natural world, including geography, botany, zoology, and human history. Tragically, Pliny the Elder perished in 79 AD during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. more

“All things are created twice. There is a mental (first) creation, and a physical (second) creation. The physical creation follows the mental, just as a building follows a blueprint. If you don't make a conscious effort to visualize who you are and what you want in life, then you empower other people and circumstances to shape you and your life by default.”

“Live by what you believe so fully that your life blossoms, or else purge the fear-and-guilt producing beliefs from your life. When people believe one thing and do something else, they are inviting misery. If you give yourself the name, play the game. When you believe something you don't follow with your heart, intellect, and body, it hurts. Don't do that to yourself. Live your belief, or let that belief go. If you are not actively living a belief, it's not really your belief, anyway.”
