Economy is in itself a great source of revenue.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Just as so many rivers, so many showers of rain from above, so many medicinal springs do not alter the taste of the sea, so the pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. For it maintains its balance, and over all that happens it throws its own complexion, because it is more powerful than external circumstances.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
The man who does something under orders is not unhappy he is unhappy who does something against his will.
Seneca the Younger
We live not according to reason, but according to fashion.
Seneca the Younger
The path of precept is long, that of example short and effectual.
Seneca the Younger
