More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Man is a reasoning Animal.
Seneca the Younger
There is no easy way from the earth to the stars.
Seneca the Younger
Human nature is so constituted that insults sink deeper than kindnesses the remembrance of the latter soon passes away, while that of the former is treasured in the memory.
Seneca the Younger
People pay the doctor for his trouble for his kindness they still remain in his debt.
Seneca the Younger
No evil is without its compensation. The less money, the less trouble the less favor, the less envy. Even in those cases which put us out of wits, it is not the loss itself, but the estimate of the loss that troubles us.
Seneca the Younger
I require myself not to be equal to the best, but to be better then the bad.
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
Men do not care how nobly they live, but only how long, although it is within the reach of every man to live nobly, but within no man's power to live long.
Seneca the Younger
You have to persevere and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to good.
Seneca the Younger
We are taught for the schoolroom, not for life.
Seneca the Younger
We live not according to reason, but according to fashion.
Seneca the Younger
Most people fancy themselves innocent of those crimes of which they cannot be convicted.
Seneca the Younger
Fate rules the affairs of men, with no recognizable order.
Seneca the Younger
A person's fears are lighter when the danger is at hand.
Seneca the Younger
He who comes to a conclusion when the other side is unheard, may have been just in his conclusion, but yet has not been just in his conduct.
Seneca the Younger
Those who boast of their descent, brag on what they owe to others.
Seneca the Younger
I had rather never receive a kindness than never bestow one.
Seneca the Younger
It is a youthful failing to be unable to control one's impulses.
Seneca the Younger
We suffer more often in imagination than in reality. [We must learn to control and focus the force of our imagination on the good, bright side so it is positive and constructive helping ourselves and others, rather than let its force focus on the bad, dark side so it is negative and destructive hurting ourselves and others!]
Seneca the Younger
Our posterity will wonder about our ignorance of things so plain.
Seneca the Younger
