More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Summer lasts not for ever seasons succeed each other.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
He who obeys with modesty appears worthy of being some day a commander.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A person who is wise does nothing against their will, nothing with sighing or under coercion.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The rabble estimate few things according to their real value, most things according to their prejudices.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The thirst of desire is never filled, nor fully satisfied.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Like, according to the old proverb, naturally goes with like.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Memory is the receptacle and sheath of all knowledge
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature abhors annihilation.
