If you are wise, You will mingle one thing with the other- Not hoping without doubt Not doubting without hope.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Praise thyself never.
Seneca the Younger

Poverty wants some, luxury many, and avarice all things.

Image
Light griefs are plaintive , but great ones are dumb
Seneca the Younger
Image
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

The expression of truth is simplicity.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Who can hope for nothing, should despair for nothing.
Seneca the Younger
Image
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
Image
In the meantime, cling tooth and nail to the following rule: not to give in to adversity, not to trust prosperity, and always take full note of fortune's habit of behaving just as she pleases.
Seneca the Younger
Image
We must take care to live not merely a long life, but a full one for living a long life requires only good fortune, but living a full life requires character. Long is the life that is fully lived it is fulfilled only when the mind supplies its own good qualities and empowers itself from within.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Nothing is void of God, his work is everywhere his full of himself.
Seneca the Younger
Image
For greed, all nature is too little.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Simple is the language of truth.
