More quotes by 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
Memory is the receptacle and sheath of all knowledge
Marcus Tullius Cicero
What is permissible is not always honorable.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Sound conviction should influence us rather than public opinion.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Friendship is infinitely better than kindness.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Taxes are the sinews of the state.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A community is like the ones who govern it.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We study history not to be clever in another time, but to be wise always.
Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
In everything, without doubt, truth has the advantage over imitation.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero

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
We are bound by the law, so that we may be free.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
No wise man has called a change of opinion in constancy.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nothing is so strongly fortified that it cannot be taken by money.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
I am of opinion that there is nothing so beautiful but that there is something still more beautiful, of which this is the mere image and expression,--a something which can neither be perceived by the eyes, the ears, nor any of the senses we comprehend it merely in the imagination.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
So you see, old age is really not so bad. May you come to know the condition!
Marcus Tullius Cicero
The sinews of war are infinite money.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
