More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Throughout the whole of life one must continue to learn to live and what will amaze you even more, throughout life you must learn to die. Seneca (Roman philosopher)
Seneca the Younger
No one's so old that he mayn't with decency hope for one more day.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
A good conscience fears no witness, but a guilty conscience is solicitous even in solitude. If we do nothing but what is honest, let all the world know it. But if otherwise, what does it signify to have nobody else know it, so long as I know it myself? Miserable is he who slights that witness.
Seneca the Younger
Go on and increase in valor, O boy! this is the path to immortality.
Seneca the Younger
Delay not swift the flight of fortune's greatest favours.

Seneca the Younger
It is the mind that makes us rich and happy, in what condition soever we are, and money signifies no more to it than it does to the gods.
Seneca the Younger
How can a thing possibly govern others when it cannot be governed itself?
Seneca the Younger
A person's fears are lighter when the danger is at hand.
Seneca the Younger
The gladiator is formulating his plan in the arena or essentially Too late.
Seneca the Younger
A crowd of fellow-sufferers is a miserable kind of comfort.
Seneca the Younger
What view is one likely to take of the state of a person's mind when his speech is wild and incoherent and knows no constraint?
Seneca the Younger
His head was turned by too great success.
Seneca the Younger
Most men ebb and flow in wretchedness between the fear of death and the hardship of life they are unwilling to live, and yet they do not know how to die.
Seneca the Younger
