A petition for a Marcus Aurelius movie to be made? This man was unarguably the greatest leader of ALL time. What a noble man!🗿🤴
Oh, would be awesome. I never go to cinema but I would do.
I agree whole-heartedly! I also think it would be good to have Ryan Holiday involved in the writing and on site before and during production so that Hollywood gets it right (or as close as possible). It would be a major blockbuster!
If that’s the case, I would probably just go for a Netflix show instead cause I see it more so as a means of capturing his life in correlation with his meditations
They will ruin him. They ruin every movie about great men
The fall of the Roman Empire (1964)
Stoicism has changed my life. I am so grateful I found this chanel earlier this year.
What do you think about the theme of "patience" in Stoicism? Let's discuss
A wonderful history lesson with context to really appreciate the self discipline, wisdom, and most importantly character of a man who pursued simplicity.
The video was informative, although I miss your original voice.
One of my favorites (among many) from Marcus Aurelius:
"When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love."
Great quote- thank you!
@@TheNoColo I'm glad you find something from it for yourself. Thanks to Marcus Aurelius and the people who preserved his thoughts. I remind myself of this quote every morning. It's also helped to overcome my Anxiety.
yeah i find it really difficult to listen to this because of the way he's speaking.
I love you Brother. You’ve changed my life.
What do you think about the theme of "patience" in Stoicism? Let's discuss
I just discovered your channel recently and so glad I did. I'm a 60 year old depressed man with a lost soul and no direction. I'm just mentally tired of the ruminating thoughts of death and what my purpose here is on earth. Ironically, my name is Mark and my mother always called Marcus Aurelius growing up. I look forward to reading your books. Thank you.
Stoicism has changed my life for the best. I found it right at the end of the pandemic period - which was kinda a dark age of my life, shall we say - when I was needing a life changing view the most.
So, Marcus Aurilius was the first philosopher I got in touch with... Oh, man, that man was remarkably fascinating! Reading his diary really inspired me to write down my own and I always keep most of his thoughts in mind, especially this one: " you can live life right now. Let that determine what you do, say and think "
Marcus Aurelius was the goat of all the Roman emperors.
Quality of these videos is insane!
The final shot, inspired by Red Dead Redemption 2, really packs a punch.
Fantastic work as always!
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I very much needed this video this morning. I watched it twice.
Marcus Aurelius is indeed a LEGEND💪
Great video. Did you use a genAI voice-over clone of your voice or normal voice-over?
Sounds like AI. I prefer Ryan's real voice.
"True value lies not in possessions or external achievements, but in the strength of character, the depth of wisdom, and the sincerity of one's heart."
Embrace the Stoic path by cultivating virtues such as wisdom, courage, temperance, and justice. Focus on developing your inner qualities rather than chasing external validation. Through self-reflection, continuous learning, and practicing mindfulness, you'll gradually become more valuable in the Stoic sense.
One of my hero’s
haha that rdr2 arthur like ending was a good touch
I absolutely love these videos Ryan. Your work as a whole. The last one you made had me bawling like a baby. They’re so emotional and cultivating. Cheers to you my friend.
Thank you for taking the time to make this bro, it really spoke to me
Thanks so much. Great way to begin sunday morning.
I love this video. Thats my hero
We need a movie about Marcus Aurelius
Beautiful, thanks for sharing that amazing story.
Beautiful. Great animations Ryan. A nice adjunct to reading a daily meditation from your translated collection
At this very moment I can hear my challenging son. He promotes sadly currently negative emotions.
But I know this, and all current moments will pass
Memento Mori and Amor Fati
Thank you, thats just what i needed, I will continue to write - do what i know i need to do.
What a mentor
We search records of history to find the 'ideal' leader. We are always disappointed to find even the best, showing afflictions of greed, hubris, arrogance, corruption, even among today's leaders. But in Marcus we find one that stands alone, who stands for everything we hold in veneration.
The animation is amazing 🤩thank you
What we do now echoes in eternity - Marcus Aurelius
I would love to hear this in your own voice. This does not do justice to you or the audience. Remember the 3rd pillar of Stoicism 😊.
Beautiful
He bought together the ideal of humanity’s traits. Being in a position of such power where he could have acted and bought such destruction he chose to do good.
Anyone know the background music? I like it !
Love from India 🇮🇳
I love this video
Amazing visuals!!!
Great story Great lesson -
Great content, but the delivery is monotone.
Excellent video. But what’s with the narration ????
The voice seems... a bit off but it's okay if it really ai. I know using ai can be a great tool but I think it is better to use your real voice since it feels more genuine.
The delivery is very distracting from the message. It sounds disingenuous
Sounds like AI
@idk-imacat could you elaborate? Are you saying the message is disingenuous or just the voice?
Cry
@@lou49bell Thats Ryan's real voice
Amazing. How did you edit this video?
Great content
I LOVE Marcus Aurelius!
However, he precipitated "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" by naming his son Commodus as his heir.
EVERYTHING else he did before should have made him the greatest Roman Emperor of all time!
During this era you have to love your country MORE than your own family. The fact that he did not do this will ALWAYS take the shine away from his significant legacy!
Why does he sound like an AI
You wish you were a i
Same thoughts. I think it's probably AI
That’s how he sounds. All his audio books are the same. Funny
Ryan shouldn’t do that lol
Thats the way Ryan sound like
I think using AI as a tool is fine, but this is pushing it a little in my opinion. AI is at its best when it is not seen, when it is not known, when it is behind the scenes. Here, the AI is in full display and it took out too much of the human element for me. I appreciate the content though, just thought I'd offer some constructive criticism.
Some people need something visual to look at to learn and keep their attention ..I can agree it's kind of strange but it's.so well done though
@@darlagrimsdell4649 For me, it's the voice that is more off-putting. It sounds like he trained his voice on an AI and fed that AI the script to read for him instead of recording his own voice for this video. If I'm being brutally honest, it comes off as lazy and careless to replicate ones own voice with AI instead of reading and recording the script. The AI took out all of the personality and the connection, it creates distance from the author, Ryan.
Very hard to listen, no emotion. Please do real voice overs, or get someone else to do the voice
Marcus Aurelius denied all short-term pleasures to become a great man
This audio is terrible to listen too. Is it ai? His audiobooks dont sound this robotic / boring lol
I think you just dont like the voice of the speaker i find it nice
Whats everyone favorite quote of Marcus?
For me. Without a close second, “The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.”
“Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now take what’s left of it and live it properly.”
Or “if it is endurable, then endure it; stop complaining.” Or “The best revenge is to be unlike your enemy.”
"Don't be ashamed to need help. Like a soldier storming a wall, you have a mission to accomplish. And if you've been wounded and you need a comrade to pull you up? So what?"
another one i like is ""Practice really hearing what people say. Do your best to get inside their minds""
"You have power over your mind not outside events realize this and you will find strength." "memento mori you could leave life right now let that determine what you say, do and think.
“I am Marcus.”

Again?
If we are comparing Aurelius to other emperors fine he’s was exemplary. But don’t for get that over 100 yrs 😢prior a man from from Judea who later revealed he was our Lord and Savior did miracles and wonder and changed the world forever. I think it’s no coincidence that Aurelius starts seeing the world and life in a better way. He essentially is promoting the Christian way of life
Mono !!
Oh my the narration lacks soul
He was no mere king, he was a God Emperor of Rome.
OK, this AI voice is killing me
maybe he should have done less philosophy and more making sure Commodus wasn't the next emperpr.
first like
I dunno man... He was great in life... But then he made one terrible decision that literally ignited the collapse of everything.
So sad
Friendly advice:- You should speak with enthusiasm rather than just reading script.
Marcus believed in God. Jesus is the only way to eternal life. ✝️
