More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Who timidly requests invites refusal.
Seneca the Younger
A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient, nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in fever. Just so should a wise man treat all mankind, as a physician does his patient, and look upon them only as sick and extravagant.
Seneca the Younger
For many men, the acquisition of wealth does not end their troubles, it only changes them.
Seneca the Younger
Be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favours you have received.
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
True friends are the whole world to one another and he that is a friend to himself is also a friend to mankind. Even in my studies the greatest delight I take is of imparting it to others for there is no relish to me in the possessing of anything without a partner.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing is so wretched or foolish as to anticipate misfortunes. What madness it is to be expecting evil before it comes.
Seneca the Younger
That poverty is no disaster is understood by everyone who has not yet succumbed to the madness of greed and luxury that turns everything topsy-turvy.
Seneca the Younger
Fidelity purchased with money, money can destroy.
Seneca the Younger
The willing, destiny guides them the unwilling, destiny drags them.
Seneca the Younger
Vice may be learnt, even without a teacher
Seneca the Younger
We are taught for the schoolroom, not for life.
Seneca the Younger
You talk one way, you live another.
Seneca the Younger
See what daily exercise does for one.
Seneca the Younger
There is no fair wind for one who knows not whither he is bound.
Seneca the Younger
The whole duty of man is embraced in the two principles of abstinence and patience: temperance in prosperity, and patient courage in adversity.
Seneca the Younger
Whatever is well said by another, is mine.
Seneca the Younger
Call it Nature, Fate, Fortune all these are names of the one and selfsame God.
Seneca the Younger
Our life's a moment and less than a moment, but even this mite nature has mockingly humored with some appearance of a longer span.
Seneca the Younger
What once were vices are manners now.
Seneca the Younger
