More quotes by Marcus Tullius Cicero
The impulse which directs to right conduct, and deters from crime, is not only older than the ages of nations and cities, but coeval with that Divine Being who sees and rules both heaven and earth.
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

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Marcus Tullius Cicero
A dissolute and intemperate youth hands down the body to old age in a worn-out state.

Marcus Tullius Cicero
That last day does not bring extinction to us, but change of place.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
A liar is not believed even though he tell the truth.
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
The more laws, the less justice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
We should be as careful of our words as of our actions.

There is no statement so absurd that no philosopher will make it.
