More laws, less justice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature abhors annihilation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Man must suffer to be wise.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The gardener plants trees, not one berry of which he will ever see: and shall not a public man plant laws, institutions, government, in short, under the same conditions?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The soil of their native land is dear to all the hearts of mankind.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
What is impossible by the nature of things is not confirmed by any law.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Who does not know history's first law to be that an author must not dare to tell anything but the truth? And its second that he must make bold to tell the whole truth? That there must be no suggestion of partiality anywhere in his writings? Nor of malice?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I have sworn with my tongue, but my mind is unsworn. [Lat., Juravi lingua, mentem injuratem gero.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature has lent us life at interest, like money, and has fixed no day for its payment.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Men in no way approach so nearly to the gods as in doing good to men. [Lat., Homines ad deos nulla re propius accedunt, quam salutem hominibus dando.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No poet or orator has ever existed who believed there was any better than himself.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The face is a picture of the mind with the eyes as its interpreter.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
An acute first-class brain is the finest asset anyone can have- and, if we want to be happy, it is an asset we must exploit to the uttermost.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
They are eloquent who can speak low things acutely, and of great things with dignity, and of moderate things with temper.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Orators are most vehement when they have the weakest cause, as men get on horseback when they cannot walk.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Opinionum enim commenta delet dies naturæ judicia confirmat. Time destroys the groundless conceits of men it confirms decisions founded on reality.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To err is human, but to persevere in error is only the act of a fool.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
