Book V · 21

Reverence that which is best in the universe; and this is that which makes use of all things and directs all things. And in like manner also reverence that which is best in thyself; and this is of the same kind as that. For in thyself also, that which makes use of everything else is this, and thy life is directed by this.

Marcus Aurelius, Meditations V.21. Translated by George Long (1862). The Stoic Library.
