Marcus Tullius Cicero
For one day spent well, and agreeably to your precepts, is preferable to an eternity of error.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
He who acknowledges a kindness has it still, and he who has a grateful sense of it has requited it.

Vicious habits are so great a stain to human nature, and so odious in themselves, that every person actuated by right reason would avoid them, though he were sure they would be always concealed both from God and man, and had no future punishment entailed upon them.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no one who can give you wiser advice than you can give yourself: you will never make a slip, if you listen to your own heart.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Frivolity is inborn, conceit acquired by education.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature abhors annihilation. [Lat., Ab interitu naturam abhorrere.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature has granted the use of life like a loan, without fixing any day for repayment.
