Different things delight different people

Different things delight different people. But it is my delight to keep the ruling faculty sound without turning away either from any man or from any of the things which happen to men, but looking at and receiving all with welcome eyes and using everything according to its value.  Marcus Aurelius.  Meditations. Book 8.
