I have withdrawn not only from men, but from affairs, especially my own affairs I am working for later generations, writing down some ideas that may be of assistance to them.
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
You need a change of soul rather than a change of climate.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing will ever please me, no matter how excellent or beneficial, if I must retain the knowledge of it to myself. . . . . . No good thing is pleasant to possess, without friends to share it.
Seneca the Younger
Fortune may rob us of our wealth, not of our courage.
Seneca the Younger
