More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no grief which time does not lessen and soften.
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
A person who is wise does nothing against their will, nothing with sighing or under coercion.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Ye immortal gods! where in the world are we?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
What gift has providence bestowed on man that is so dear to him as his children?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In a discussion of this kind our interest should be centered not on the weight of the authority but on the weight of the argument. Indeed the authority of those who set out to teach is often an impediment to those who wish to learn. They cease to use their own judgment and regard as gospel whatever is put forward by their chosen teacher.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We all are imbued with the love of praise.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Whatever is graceful is virtuous, and whatever is virtuous is graceful.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Were floods of tears to be unloosed In tribute to my grief, The doves of Noah ne'er had roost Nor found an olive-leaf.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No one has leave to sin.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is in fact a true law namely right reason, which is in accordance with nature, applies to all men and is unchangeable and eternal. ... It will not lay down one rule at Rome and another at Athens, nor will it be one rule today and another tomorrow. But there will be one law eternal and unchangeable binding all times and upon all peoples.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The higher our position the more modestly we should behave.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Tomorrow will give us something to think about
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No man in his senses will dance.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The spirit is the true self, not that physical figure which can be pointed out by your finger.
