More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Drunkenness doesn't create vices, but it brings them to the fore.
Seneca the Younger
Life's neither a good nor an evil: it's a field for good and evil.
Seneca the Younger
Why does no one confess his sins? Because he is yet in them. It is for a man who has awoke from sleep to tell his dreams.
Seneca the Younger
Live among others as if God beheld you speak to God as if others were listening.
Seneca the Younger
The mind is never right but when it is at peace within itself the soul is in heaven even while it is in the flesh, if it be purged of its natural corruptions, and taken up with divine thoughts, and contemplations.
Seneca the Younger
We all sorely complain of the shortness of time, and yet have much more than we know what to do with. Our lives are either spent in doing nothing at all, or in doing nothing to the purpose, or in doing nothing that we ought to do. We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them.
Seneca the Younger
Conversation has a kind of charm about it, an insuating and insidious something that elicits secrets from us just like love or liquor.
Seneca the Younger
It is the mind that makes us rich and happy, in what condition soever we are, and money signifies no more to it than it does to the gods.
Seneca the Younger
Do everything as in the eye of another.
Seneca the Younger
The bounty of nature is too little for the greedy person.
Seneca the Younger
There are more people abusive to others than lie open to abuse themselves but the humor goes round, and he that laughs at me today will have somebody to laugh at him tomorrow.
Seneca the Younger
Learn how to feel joy.
Seneca the Younger
Let us say what we feel, and feel what we say let speech harmonize with life.
Seneca the Younger
We are taught for the schoolroom, not for life.
Seneca the Younger
The shortest road to wealth lies in the contempt of wealth.
Seneca the Younger
To meditate an injury is to commit one.
Seneca the Younger
Pleasure dies at the very moment when it charms us most.
Seneca the Younger
To live is not a blessing, but to live well.
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
The expression of truth is simplicity.
Seneca the Younger
