More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
We are bound by the law, so that we may be free.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Come now: Do we really think that the gods are everywhere called by the same names by which they are addressed by us? But the gods have as many names as there are languages among humans.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
For surely to be wise is the most desirable thing in all the world.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For hardly any man dances when sober, unless he is insane. Nor does he dance while alone, nor at a respectable and moderate party. Dancing is the final phase of a wild party with fancy decorations and a multitude of delights.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Do nothing twice over.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The works of nature must all be accounted good.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Man was born for two things--thinking and acting.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is difficult to remember all, and ungracious to omit any.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To give counsel, as well as to take it, is a feature of true friendship.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Hours and days and months and years go by the past returns no more, and what is to be we cannot know but whatever the time gives us in which we live, we should therefore be content.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
You will be as much value to others as you have been to yourself.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Leisure consists in all those virtuous activities by which a man grows morally, intellectually, and spiritually. It is that which makes a life worth living.
