More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
Memory is the receptacle and sheath of all knowledge
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing troubles you for which you do not yearn.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature loves nothing solitary, and always reaches out to something, as a support, which ever in the sincerest friend is most delightful.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Learning maketh young men temperate, is the comfort of old age, standing for wealth with poverty, and serving as an ornament to riches.
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
As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Let the welfare of the people be the ultimate law.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Reason is the mistress and queen of all things. [Lat., Domina omnium et regina ratio.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing dries sooner than a tear.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Let us not listen to those who think we ought to be angry with our enemies, and who believe this to be great and manly. Nothing is so praiseworthy, nothing so clearly shows a great and noble soul, as clemency and readiness to forgive.
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 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
Thrift is a great revenue.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Leisure with dignity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Of all the rewards of virtue, . . . the most splendid is fame, for it is fame alone that can offer us the memory of posterity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Extreme justice is extreme injustice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Our generosity never should exceed our abilities.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Piety and holiness of life will propitiate the gods. [Lat., Deos placatos pietas efficiet et sanctitas.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
All the arts, which have a tendency to raise man in the scale of being, have a certain common band of union, and are connected, if I may be allowed to say so, by blood-relationship with one another.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
