What is true belongs to me!
Seneca the Younger
Calamity is virtue's opportunity.
Seneca the Younger
Do everything as in the eye of another.
Seneca the Younger
It is a world of mischief that may be done by a single example of avarice or luxury. One voluptuous palate makes many more.
Seneca the Younger
Light cares speak, great ones are speechless. -Curae leves loquuntur ingentes stupent
Seneca the Younger
Genius has never been accepted without a measure of condonement.
Seneca the Younger
The state of that man's mind who feels too intense an interest as to future events, must be most deplorable.
Seneca the Younger
If you live according to nature, you never will be poor if according to the world's caprice, you will never be rich.
Seneca the Younger
Four things does a reckless man gain who covets his neighbor's wife - demerit, an uncomfortable bed, thirdly, punishment, and lastly, hell.
Seneca the Younger
It is never too late to turn from the errors of our ways: He who repents of his sins is almost innocent.
Seneca the Younger
If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable.
Seneca the Younger
Rehearse death. To say this is to tell a person to rehearse his freedom. A person who has learned how to die has unlearned how to be a slave. He is above, or at any rate, beyond the reach of, all political powers.
Seneca the Younger
He that will do no good offices after a disappointment must stand still, and do just nothing at all. The plough goes on after a barren year and while the ashes are yet warm, we raise a new house upon the ruins of a former.
Seneca the Younger
In every good man a God doth dwell.
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
Luck is preparation multiplied by opportunity.
Seneca the Younger
Nobody becomes guilty by fate.
Seneca the Younger
Freedom is not being a slave to any circumstance, to any constraint, to any chance it means compelling Fortune to enter the lists on equal terms.
Seneca the Younger
We should live as if we were in public view, and think, too, as if someone could peer into the inmost recesses of our hearts-which someone can!
Seneca the Younger
If you don't know what port you are sailing to, no wind is favourable.
Seneca the Younger
