More quotes by Seneca the Younger
No man finds it difficult to return to nature except the man who has deserted nature.
Seneca the Younger
We become wiser by adversity prosperity destroys our appreciation of the right. True happiness is ... to enjoy the present It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare it is because we do not dare that they are difficult.
Seneca the Younger
We should give as we would receive, cheerfully, quickly, and without hesitation for there is no grace in a benefit that sticks to the fingers.
Seneca the Younger
There's one blessing only, the source and cornerstone of beatitude: confidence in self.
Seneca the Younger
There is nothing wrong with changing a plan when the situation has changed.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Delay not swift the flight of fortune's greatest favours.
Seneca the Younger
Life is divided into three periods: that which has been, that which is, that which will be. Of these the present is short, the future is doubtful, the past is certain.
Seneca the Younger
We should have a bond of sympathy for all sentient beings, knowing that only the depraved and base take pleasure in the sight of blood and suffering.
Seneca the Younger
Human nature is so constituted that insults sink deeper than kindnesses the remembrance of the latter soon passes away, while that of the former is treasured in the memory.
Seneca the Younger
I had rather never receive a kindness than never bestow one.
Seneca the Younger
You learn to know a pilot in a storm.
Seneca the Younger
The greatest hindrance to living is expectancy, which depends upon tomorrow and wastes today
Seneca the Younger
All art is but imitation of nature.
Seneca the Younger
While we teach, we learn.
Seneca the Younger
He who blushes at riding in a rattletrap, will boast when he rides in style.
Seneca the Younger
We gain so much by quickness, and lose so much by slowness.
Seneca the Younger
Some lack the fickleness to live as they wish and just live as they have begun.
Seneca the Younger
Auditur et altera pars. (The other side shall be heard as well.)
Seneca the Younger
It is a world of mischief that may be done by a single example of avarice or luxury. One voluptuous palate makes many more.
Seneca the Younger
