More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
Friendship is nothing else than entire fellow feeling as to all things human and divine with mutual good-will and affection and I doubt whether anything better than this, wisdom alone excepted, has been given to man.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Do nothing twice over.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
He who suffers, remembers.

The soul in sleep gives proof of its divine nature.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Rashness attends youth, as prudence does old age.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
What is morally wrong can never be advantageous, even when it enables you to make some gain that you believe to be to your advantage. The mere act of believing that some wrongful course of action constitutes an advantage is pernicious.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no statement so absurd that no philosopher will make it.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature herself makes the wise man rich.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Strain every nerve to gain your point.
