Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything, without doubt, truth has the advantage over imitation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Hmm... That's like telling you about the cold of space, or terror of midnight. Sithis is all those things. He is... the Void.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
People don't know the value of what they have until it is gone: Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.... Liberty is rendered even more precious by the recollection of servitude. Don't wait till freedom is gone before you enjoy, value, support, protect and make the most of it!
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing is so strongly fortified that it cannot be taken by money.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Any man can make a mistake only a fool keeps making the same one.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Since an intelligence common to us all makes things known to us and formulates them in our minds, honorable actions are ascribed by us to virtue, and dishonorable actions to vice and only a madman would conclude that these judgments are matters of opinion, and not fixed by nature.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Fortune, not wisdom, rules lives.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Exile is terrible to those who have, as it were, a circumscribed habitation but not to those who look upon the whole globe but as one city.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no duty more indispensible than that of returning a kindness.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
