More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Beauty is such a fleeting blossom, how can wisdom rely upon its momentary delight?
Seneca the Younger
Gold is tried by fire, brave men by adversity.
Seneca the Younger
A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient, nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in fever. Just so should a wise man treat all mankind, as a physician does his patient, and look upon them only as sick and extravagant.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue is nothing else than right reason
Seneca the Younger
Every day, therefore, should be regulated as if it were the one that brings up the rear, the one that rounds out and completes our lives.
Seneca the Younger
You talk one way, you live another.
Seneca the Younger
Fate rules the affairs of men, with no recognizable order.
Seneca the Younger
Drunkenness is nothing but voluntary madness.
Seneca the Younger
The fear of war is worse than war itself.
Seneca the Younger
It does not matter how many books you have, but how good the books are which you have.
Seneca the Younger
Crime requires further crime to conceal it.
Seneca the Younger
Modesty forbids what the law does not.
Seneca the Younger
What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more.
Seneca the Younger
Let us say what we feel, and feel what we say let speech harmonize with life.
Seneca the Younger
The Best sign of Wisdom is the consistency between the words and deeds.
Seneca the Younger
They lose the day in expectation of the night, and the night in fear of the dawn.
Seneca the Younger
A crowd of fellow-sufferers is a miserable kind of comfort.
Seneca the Younger
He who blushes at riding in a rattletrap, will boast when he rides in style.
Seneca the Younger
That poverty is no disaster is understood by everyone who has not yet succumbed to the madness of greed and luxury that turns everything topsy-turvy.
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
