Seneca the Younger
That which has been endured with difficulty is remedied with delight.
Seneca the Younger
He who fears from near at hand often fears less.
Seneca the Younger

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

Seneca the Younger
Be not dazzled by beauty, but look for those inward qualities which are lasting.
Seneca the Younger
Just as so many rivers, so many showers of rain from above, so many medicinal springs do not alter the taste of the sea, so the pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. For it maintains its balance, and over all that happens it throws its own complexion, because it is more powerful than external circumstances.
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
You talk one way, you live another.
Seneca the Younger
Man is a reasoning Animal.
Seneca the Younger
Everything may happen.
Seneca the Younger
There exists no more difficult art than living.
Seneca the Younger
