More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
The rabble estimate few things according to their real value, most things according to their prejudices.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A liar is not believed even though he tell the truth.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To err is human, but to persevere in error is only the act of a fool.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To-morrow will give some food for thought.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
These (literary) studies are the food of youth, and consolation of age they adorn prosperity, and are the comfort and refuge of adversity they are pleasant at home, and are no incumbrance abroad they accompany us at night, in our travels, and in our rural retreats.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A man's own manner and character is what most becomes him.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Everyone has the obligation to ponder well his own specific traits of character. He must also regulate them adequately and not wonder whether someone else's traits might suit him better. The more definitely his own a man's character is, the better it fits him.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing contributes to the entertainment of the reader more, than the change of times and the vicissitudes of fortune.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For surely to be wise is the most desirable thing in all the world.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Life without learning is death.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I am pleased to be praised by a man so praised as you, father. [Words used by Hector.] [Lat., Laetus sum Laudari me abs te, pater, laudato viro.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Ignorance of impending evil is far better than a knowledge of its approach.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything truth surpasses the imitation and copy.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
So it may well be believed that when I found him taking a complete holiday, with a vast supply of books at command, he had the air of indulging in a literary debauch, if the term may be applied to so honorable an occupation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is difficult to remember all, and ungracious to omit any.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is graceful in a man to think and to speak with propriety, to act with deliberation, and in every occurrence of life to find out and persevere in the truth. On the other hand, to be imposed upon, to mistake, to falter, and to be deceived, is as ungraceful as to rave or to be insane.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is the soul itself which sees and hears, and not those parts which are, as it were, but windows to the soul.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
This excessive licence, which the anarchists think is the only true freedom, provides the stock, as it were, from which a tyrant grows.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The foundation of justice is good faith.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum. (Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.)
Marcus Tullius Cicero
