We deliberate about the parcels of life, but not about life itself, and so we arrive all unawares at its different epochs, and have the trouble of beginning all again. And so finally it is that we do not walk as men confidently towards death, but let death come suddenly upon us.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
As gratitude is a necessary, and a glorious virtue, so also it is an obvious, a cheap, and an easy one so obvious that wherever there is life there is a place for it so cheap, that the covetous man may be gratified without expense, and so easy that the sluggard may be so likewise without labor.
Seneca the Younger
He that does good to another does good also to himself.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
