More quotes by 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. For it is not with the gods as with you: you are Velleius wherever you go, but Vulcan is not Vulcan in Italy and in Africa and in Spain.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no mortal whom pain and disease do not reach.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Great is our admiration of the orator who speaks with fluency and discretion.

To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing is more noble, nothing more venerable than fidelity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature herself makes the wise man rich.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The more laws, the less justice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing is more unreliable than the populace, nothing more obscure than human intentions, nothing more deceptive than the whole electoral system.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Our character is not so much the product of race and heredity as of those circumstances by which nature forms our habits, by which we are nurtured and live.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no life without friendship
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Physicians, when the cause of disease is discovered, consider that the cure is discovered.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Silent enim leges inter arma (Laws are silent in times of war).
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If you wish to remove avarice you must remove its mother, luxuries. [Lat., Avaritiam si tollere vultis, mater ejus est tollenda, luxuries.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Not to have knowledge of what happened before you were born is to be condemned to live as a child.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Let the welfare of the people be the ultimate law.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is graceful in a man to think and to speak with propriety, to act with deliberation, and in every occurrence of life to find out and persevere in the truth. On the other hand, to be imposed upon, to mistake, to falter, and to be deceived, is as ungraceful as to rave or to be insane.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Everyone has his besetting sin.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The whole of virtue consists in its practice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
