More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
Certain signs are the forerunners of certain events.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no treasure the which may be compared unto a faithful friend Gold some decayeth, and worldly wealth consumeth, and wasteth in the winde But love once planted in a perfect and pure minde indureth weale and woe The frownes of fortune, come they never so unkinde, cannot the same overthrowe.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A man would have no pleasures in discovering all the beauties of the universe, even in heaven itself, unless he had a partner to whom he might communicate his joys.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A home without books is a body without soul.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Taxes are the sinews of the state.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Peace is liberty in tranquillity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Every evil in the bud is easily crushed: as it grows older, it becomes stronger.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is a difference between justice and consideration in one's relations to one's fellow men. It is the function of justice not to do wrong to one's fellow men of considerateness, not to wound their feelings.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
While there's life, there's hope.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A good man will not lie, although it be for his profit.
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
Let a man practise the profession he best knows. [Lat., Quam quisque novit artem, in hac se exerceat.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
An army abroad is of little use unless there are prudent counsels at home. [Lat., Parvi enim sunt foris arma, nisi est consilium domi.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything, without doubt, truth has the advantage over imitation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is a crime to put a Roman citizen in chains, it is an enormity to flog one, sheer murder to slay one: what, then, shall I say of crucifixion? It is impossible to find the word for such an abomination.
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
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
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
The whole glory of virtue resides in activity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The absolute good is not a matter of opinion but of nature.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
