How great an evil do you see that may have been announced by you against the Republic? - Videtis quantum scelus contra rem publicam vobis nuntiatum sit?
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Exercise and temperance can preserve something of our early strength even in old age.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth. He that follows this rule may be old in body, but can never be so in mind.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
This excessive licence, which the anarchists think is the only true freedom, provides the stock, as it were, from which a tyrant grows.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The judgment of posterity is truer, because it is free from envy and malevolence.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If some lose their whole fortunes, they will drag many more down with them . . . believe me that the whole system of credit and finance which is carried on here at Rome in the Forum, is inextricably bound up with the revenues of the Asiatic province.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
An old man with something of the youth in him, may feel young in mind and heart only.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is no treasure the which may be compared unto a faithful friend Gold some decayeth, and worldly wealth consumeth, and wasteth in the winde But love once planted in a perfect and pure minde indureth weale and woe The frownes of fortune, come they never so unkinde, cannot the same overthrowe.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
When I consider the wonderful activity of the mind, so great a memory of what is past, and such a capacity of penetrating into the future: when I behold such a number of arts and sciences, and such a multitude of discoveries hence arising,--I believe and am firmly persuaded that a nature which contains so many things within itself cannot be mortal.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Opinionum enim commenta delet dies naturæ judicia confirmat. Time destroys the groundless conceits of men it confirms decisions founded on reality.
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
I hear Socrates saying that the best seasoning for food is hunger for drink, thirst.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Extreme justice is extreme injustice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The face is a picture of the mind with the eyes as its interpreter.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Old age, especially an honored old age, has so great authority, that this is of more value than all the pleasures of youth.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Men ought to be most annoyed by the sufferings which come from their own faults.
