More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The physician cannot prescribe by letter, he must feel the pulse.
Seneca the Younger
What must be shall be and that which is a necessity to him that struggles, is little more than choice to him that is willing.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue depends partly upon training and partly upon practice you must learn first, and then strengthen your learning by action. If this be true, not only do the doctrines of wisdom help us but the precepts also, which check and banish our emotions by a sort of official decree.
Seneca the Younger
If ever you come upon a grove of ancient trees which have grown to an exceptional height, shutting out a view of sky by a veil of pleached and intertwining branches, then the loftiness of the forest, the seclusion of the spot and your marvel at the thick unbroken shade in the midst of the open spaces, will prove to you the presence of deity.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue depends partly upon training and partly upon practice you must learn first, and then strengthen your learning by actions.
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
He that by harshness of nature rules his family with an iron hand is as truly a tyrant as he who misgoverns a nation.
Seneca the Younger
Full of men, vacant of friends.
Seneca the Younger
He who does not prevent a crime, when he can, encourages it.
Seneca the Younger
All things are cause for either laughter or weeping.
Seneca the Younger
You must know for which harbor you are headed, if you are to catch the right wind to take you there.
Seneca the Younger
