More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
The soul in sleep gives proof of its divine nature.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
There are two ways to resolve conflicts, through violence or through negotiation. Violence is for wild beasts, negotiation is for human beings.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
For out of such an ungoverned populace one is usually chosen as a leader, someone bold and unscrupulous who curries favor with the people by giving them other men's property. To such a man the protection of public office is given, and continually renewed. He emerges as a tyrant over the very people who raised him to power.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A home without books is a body without soul.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
You must therefore love me, myself, and not my circumstances, if we are to be real friends.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
Strain every nerve to gain your point.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I never heard of an old man forgetting where he had buried his money. Old people remember what interests them: the dates fixed for their lawsuits, and the names of their debtors and creditors.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The good of the people is the greatest law.
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
The freedom of poetic license.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Saving the virtues includes all other advantages
