More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
There is a difference between justice and consideration in one's relations to one's fellow men. It is the function of justice not to do wrong to one's fellow men of considerateness, not to wound their feelings.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
To give counsel, as well as to take it, is a feature of true friendship.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The rule of friendship means there should be mutual sympathy between them, each supplying what the other lacks and trying to benefit the other, always using friendly and sincere words.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A liar is not believed even though he tell the truth.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The Jews belong to a dark and repulsive force. One knows how numerous this clique is, how they stick together and what power they exercise through their unions. They are a nation of rascals and deceivers.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is not only arrogant, but it is profligate, for a man to disregard the world's opinion of himself.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Not cohabitation but consensus constitutes marriage.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Friendship is the only point in human affairs concerning the benefit of which all, with one voice, agree.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
All men have a feeling, that they would rather you told them a civil lie than give them a point blank refusal.... If you make a promise, the thing is still uncertain, depends on a future day, and concerns but few people but if you refuse you alienate people to a certainty and at once, and many people too.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
If you wish to remove avarice you must remove its mother, luxuries. [Lat., Avaritiam si tollere vultis, mater ejus est tollenda, luxuries.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Ability without honor is useless.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Men resemble the gods in nothing so much as in doing good to their fellow creatures.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Those wars are unjust which are undertaken without provocation. For only a war waged for revenge or defence can actually be just.
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
Everything is alive... Everything is interconnected.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
When money is unreasonably coveted, it is a disease of the mind which is called avarice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Our liberality should not exceed our ability.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum. (Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.)
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The master sometimes serves, and the servant sometimes is master.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We cannot employ the mind to advantage when we are filled with excessive food and drink.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
