More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
Our liberality should not exceed our ability.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We learn nothing from history except that we learn nothing from history.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues. [Lat., Gratus animus est una virtus non solum maxima, sed etiam mater virtutum onmium reliquarum.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For out of such an ungoverned populace one is usually chosen as a leader, someone bold and unscrupulous who curries favor with the people by giving them other men's property. To such a man the protection of public office is given, and continually renewed. He emerges as a tyrant over the very people who raised him to power.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To give and receive advice - the former with freedom, and yet without bitterness, the latter with patience and without irritation - is peculiarly appropriate to geniune friendship.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
All the arts, which have a tendency to raise man in the scale of being, have a certain common band of union, and are connected, if I may be allowed to say so, by blood-relationship with one another.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Virtue is its own reward.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The man who is always fortunate cannot easily have a great reverence for virtue.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
These studies are a spur to the young, a delight to the old: an ornament in prosperity, a consoling refuge in adversity they are pleasure for us at home, and no burden abroad they stay up with us at night, they accompany us when we travel, they are with us in our country visits.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
All soils are not fertile.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Fortune is not only blind herself, but blinds the people she has embraced.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing is more disgraceful than insincerity.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Calamus fortior gladio.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We are all excited by the love of praise, and the noblest are most influenced by glory.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
While there's life, there's hope.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To teach is a necessity, to please is a sweetness, to persuade is a victory.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything, without doubt, truth has the advantage over imitation.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Taxes are the sinews of the state.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Any man is liable to err, only a fool persists in error.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
What sweetness is left in life, if you take away friendship? Robbing life of friendship is like robbing the world of the sun. A true friend is more to be esteemed than kinsfolk.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
