More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The anger of those in authority is always weighty.
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
In every good man a God doth dwell.
Seneca the Younger
The person you are matters more than the place to which you go.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Persistent kindness conquers the ill-disposed.
Seneca the Younger
How much does great prosperity overspread the mind with darkness.
Seneca the Younger
Whatever we owe, it is our part to find where to pay it, and to do it without asking, too for whether the creditor be good or bad, the debt is still the same.
Seneca the Younger
Poverty needs much, avarice everything.
Seneca the Younger
It is often better not to see an insult than to avenge it.
Seneca the Younger
