More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
I remember the very thing that I do not wish to I cannot forget the things I wish to forget.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The whole of virtue consists in its practice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is graceful in a man to think and to speak with propriety, to act with deliberation, and in every occurrence of life to find out and persevere in the truth. On the other hand, to be imposed upon, to mistake, to falter, and to be deceived, is as ungraceful as to rave or to be insane.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In our amusements a certain limit is to be placed that we may not devote ourselves to a life of pleasure and thence fall into immorality.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For just as some women are said to be handsome though without adornment, so this subtle manner of speech, though lacking in artificial graces, delights us.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is our duty, my young friends, to resist old age.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nature has planted in our minds an insatiable longing to see the truth.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There has never been a poet or orator who thought another better than himself.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Ill gotten gains will be ill spent.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I follow nature as the surest guide, and resign myself with implicit obedience to her sacred ordinances.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing so cements and holds together all the parts of a society as faith or credit, which can never be kept up unless men are under some force or necessity of honestly paying what they owe to one another.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It has seemed to be more necessary to have regard to the weight of words rather than to their number.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No man in his senses will dance.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No man can be brave who thinks pain the greatest evil nor temperate, who considers pleasure the highest god. [Lat., Fortis vero, dolorem summum malum judicans aut temperans, voluptatem summum bonum statuens, esse certe nullo modo potest.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Leisure consists in all those virtuous activities by which a man grows morally, intellectually, and spiritually. It is that which makes a life worth living.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything truth surpasses the imitation and copy.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Aristoteles quidem ait: 'Omnes ingeniosos melancholicos esse.' Aristotle says that all men of genius are melancholy.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A careful physician . . . before he attempts to administer a remedy to his patient, must investigate not only the malady of the man he wishes to cure, but also his habits when in health, and his physical constitution.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Do nothing twice over.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Anyone may fairly seek his own advantage, but no one has a right to do so at another's expense.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
