      Imperator Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antonius Augustus bol aj spisovateľom a filozofom. Jeho dielo Hovory k sebe samému je dostatočne známe (v slovenčine vyšlo pod názvom Myšlienky k sebe samému). Pre naše územie je zaujímavé aj tým, že Marcus Aurelius napísal: "Písané v krajine Kvádov nad Grannou (Hronom)." Cisár superveľmoci sediaci na brehu Hrona a uvažujúci o zmysle života je skutočnosťou, ktorá sa na našom území odohrala takmer pred dvetisíc rokmi

      Amidst a backdrop of power struggles and societal unrest, the narrative explores the alarming parallels between fictional political drama and the current state of the United States. It reflects on the nation's founding ideals of freedom and contrasts them with the rise of authoritarianism, blind loyalty, and the consequences of these dynamics on the populace. This thought-provoking examination challenges readers to confront the realities of modern governance and the implications for democracy.

      Can war be justified? Pacifists answer that it cannot; they oppose war and advocate for nonviolent alternatives to war. But defenders of just war theory argue that in some circumstances, when the effectiveness of nonviolence is limited, wars can be justified.
