More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The greatest man is he who chooses right with the most invincible resolution.
Seneca the Younger
We often want one thing and pray for another, not telling the truth even to the gods.
Seneca the Younger
What does reason demand of a man? A very easy thing-to live in accord with his own nature.
Seneca the Younger
God never repents of what He has first resolved upon.
Seneca the Younger
It's unknown the place and uncertain the time where death awaits you thus you must expect death to find you, every time, at every place.
Seneca the Younger
There is no evil that does not promise inducements. Avarice promises money luxury, a varied assortment of pleasures ambition, a purple robe and applause. Vices tempt you by the rewards they offer.
Seneca the Younger
It is sweet to mingle tears with tears Griefs, where they wound in solitude, Wound more deeply.
Seneca the Younger
We are more wicked together than separately. If you are forced to be in a crowd, then most of all you should withdraw into yourself.
Seneca the Younger
You have to persevere and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to good.
Seneca the Younger
That loss is most discreditable which is caused by negligence.
Seneca the Younger
Modesty forbids what the law does not.
Seneca the Younger
He grieves more than is necessary who grieves before any cause for sorrow has arisen.
Seneca the Younger
Who can hope for nothing, should despair for nothing.
Seneca the Younger
Fire tries gold, misery tries brave men.
Seneca the Younger
The greatest loss of time is delay and expectation, which depend upon the future. We let go the present, which we have in our power, and look forward to that which depends upon chance, and so relinquish a certainty for an uncertainty.
Seneca the Younger
As long as you live, learn how to live.
Seneca the Younger
We live not according to reason, but according to fashion.
Seneca the Younger
If you don't know what port you are sailing to, no wind is favourable.
Seneca the Younger
Wisdom teaches us to do, as well as to talk and to make our words and actions all of a colour.
Seneca the Younger
When I think over what I have said, I envy dumb people.
Seneca the Younger
