Marcus Tullius Cicero
Hmm... That's like telling you about the cold of space, or terror of midnight. Sithis is all those things. He is... the Void.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Just as the soul fills the body, so God fills the world. Just as the soul bears the body, so God endures the world. Just as the soul sees but is not seen, so God sees but is not seen. Just as the soul feeds the body, so God gives food to the world.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Your enemies can kill you, but only your friends can hurt you.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The wise man never loses his temper.
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
