A careful physician . . . before he attempts to administer a remedy to his patient, must investigate not only the malady of the man he wishes to cure, but also his habits when in health, and his physical constitution.

More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
They are, all of them, born with raging fanaticism in their hearts, just as the Bretons and the Germans are born with blond hair. I would not be in the least bit surprised if these people would not some day become deadly to the human race.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Like, according to the old proverb, naturally goes with like.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Wisdom is the only thing which can relieve us from the sway of the passions and the fear of danger, and which can teach us to bear the injuries of fortune itself with moderation, and which shows us all the ways which lead to tranquility and peace.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If I am mistaken in my opinion that the human soul is immortal, I willingly err nor would I have this pleasant error extorted from me and if, as some minute philosophers suppose, death should deprive me of my being, I need not fear the raillery of those pretended philosophers when they are no more.
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
All men have a feeling, that they would rather you told them a civil lie than give them a point blank refusal.... If you make a promise, the thing is still uncertain, depends on a future day, and concerns but few people but if you refuse you alienate people to a certainty and at once, and many people too.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The first law for the historian is that he shall never dare utter an untruth. The second is that he shall suppress nothing that is true. Moreover, there shall be no suspicion of partiality in his writing, or of malice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Silence is one of the great arts of conversation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is foolish to pluck out one's hair for sorrow, as if grief could be assuaged by baldness.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Religion is the pious worship of God.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For it is commonly said: accomplished labours are pleasant.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Piety and holiness of life will propitiate the gods. [Lat., Deos placatos pietas efficiet et sanctitas.]
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
The greater the difficulty, the greater the glory.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I prefer the wisdom of the uneducated to the folly of the loquacious.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Freedom is a man's natural power of doing what he pleases, so far as he is not prevented by force or law.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The first duty of man is the seeking after and the investigation of truth.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Liberty is rendered even more precious by the recollection of servitude.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
