More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
No man was ever great without divine inspiration. [Lat., Nemo vir magnus aliquo afflatu divino unquam fuit.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The life of the dead is placed on the memories of the living. The love you gave in life keeps people alive beyond their time. Anyone who was given love will always live on in another's heart.

The Intellect engages us in the pursuit of Truth. The Passions impel us to Action.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There are two ways to resolve conflicts, through violence or through negotiation. Violence is for wild beasts, negotiation is for human beings.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The Jews belong to a dark and repulsive force. One knows how numerous this clique is, how they stick together and what power they exercise through their unions. They are a nation of rascals and deceivers.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
What gift has providence bestowed on man that is so dear to him as his children?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
He who acknowledges a kindness has it still, and he who has a grateful sense of it has requited it.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The whole glory of virtue resides in activity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
