Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is a shameful thing to be weary of inquiry when what we search for is excellent.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Everyone has the obligation to ponder well his own specific traits of character. He must also regulate them adequately and not wonder whether someone else's traits might suit him better. The more definitely his own a man's character is, the better it fits him.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Frivolity is inborn, conceit acquired by education.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Virtue is increased by the smile of approval and the love of renown is the greatest incentive to honourable acts.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Can there be greater foolishness than the respect you pay to people collectively when you despise them individually?
