Seneca the Younger
Crime requires further crime to conceal it.
Seneca the Younger
A man is as unhappy as he has convinced himself he is.
Seneca the Younger
Time is the one thing that is given to everyone in equal measure.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
The best cure for anger is delay.
Seneca the Younger
Great is he who enjoys his earthenware as if it were plate, and not less great is the man to whom all his plate is no more that earthenware.
Seneca the Younger
A good conscience fears no witness, but a guilty conscience is solicitous even in solitude. If we do nothing but what is honest, let all the world know it. But if otherwise, what does it signify to have nobody else know it, so long as I know it myself? Miserable is he who slights that witness.
Seneca the Younger
There is a noble manner of being poor, and who does not know it will never be rich.
Seneca the Younger
Those things which make the infernal regions terrible, the darkness, the prison, the river of flaming fire, the judgment seat, are all a fable, with which the poets amuse themselves, and by them agitate us with vain terrors.
Seneca the Younger
Freedom can't be kept for nothing. If you set a high value on liberty, you must set a low value on everything else.
Seneca the Younger
No one can have all he desires.
Seneca the Younger
Authority founded on injustice is never of long duration.
Seneca the Younger
Corporeal punishment falls far more heavily than most weighty pecuniary penalty.
Seneca the Younger
He who has made a fair compact with poverty is rich.
Seneca the Younger
You have to persevere and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to good.
Seneca the Younger
The approach of liberty makes even an old man brave.
Seneca the Younger
Shame may restrain what law does not prohibit.
Seneca the Younger
