Seneca the Younger
The mind that is anxious about future events is miserable.
Seneca the Younger

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
The state of that man's mind who feels too intense an interest as to future events, must be most deplorable.
Seneca the Younger
When I think over what I have said, I envy dumb people.
Seneca the Younger
To be able to endure odium is the first art to be learned by those who aspire to power.
Seneca the Younger
Men learn while they teach.
Seneca the Younger
Solitude and company may be allowed to take their turns: the one creates in us the love of mankind, the other that of ourselves solitude relieves us when we are sick of company, and conversation when we are weary of being alone, so that the one cures the other. There is no man so miserable as he that is at a loss how to use his time
Seneca the Younger
The man who has learned to triumph over sorrow wears his miseries as though they were sacred fillets upon his brow and nothing is so entirely admirable as a man bravely wretched.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue with some is nothing but successful temerity.
Seneca the Younger
Fate rules the affairs of men, with no recognizable order.
Seneca the Younger
To the person who does not know where he wants to go there is no favorable wind.
Seneca the Younger
