More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
I prefer tongue-tied knowledge to ignorant loquacity.

The absolute good is not a matter of opinion but of nature.

The wise are instructed by reason, average minds by experience, the stupid by necessity and the brute by instinct.
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
The countenance is the portrait of the soul, and the eyes mark its intentions.

What is there that is illustrious that is not also attended by labor?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The judgment of posterity is truer, because it is free from envy and malevolence.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Enmity is anger watching the opportunity for revenge.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In honorable dealing you should consider what you intended, not what you said or thought.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The more virtuous any man is, the less easily does he suspect others to be vicious.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Vicious habits are so great a stain to human nature, and so odious in themselves, that every person actuated by right reason would avoid them, though he were sure they would be always concealed both from God and man, and had no future punishment entailed upon them.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Whatever is done without ostentation, and without the people being witnesses of it, is, in my opinion, most praiseworthy: not that the public eye should be entirely avoided, for good actions desire to be placed in the light but notwithstanding this, the greatest theater for virtue is conscience.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
All soils are not fertile.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
