More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Let me therefore live as if every moment were to be my last.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Whatever begins, also ends.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
It is not how many books thou hast, but how good careful reading profiteth, while that which is full of variety delighteth.
Seneca the Younger
All that lies betwixt the cradle and the grave is uncertain.
Seneca the Younger
While you teach, you learn.
Seneca the Younger
Just where death is expecting you is something we cannot know so, for your part, expect him everywhere.

It is sometimes pleasant even to act like a madman.
Seneca the Younger
You find in some a sort of graceless modesty, that makes them ashamed to requite an obligation.
Seneca the Younger
Auditur et altera pars. (The other side shall be heard as well.)
Seneca the Younger
The Germans, a race eager for war.
Seneca the Younger
You must linger among a limited number of master-thinkers, and digest their works, if you would derive ideas which shall win firm hold in your mind.
Seneca the Younger
Success consecrates the most offensive crimes.
Seneca the Younger
Democracy is more cruel than wars or tyrants.
Seneca the Younger
Time is the one thing that is given to everyone in equal measure.
Seneca the Younger
I will have a care of being a slave to myself, for it is a perpetual, a shameful, and the heaviest of all servitudes and this may be done by moderate desires.
Seneca the Younger
He who has fostered the sweet poison of love by fondling it, finds it too late to refuse the yoke which he has of his own accord assumed.
Seneca the Younger
If I only have the will to be grateful, I am so.
Seneca the Younger
