Seneca the Younger
Choose as a guide one whom you will admire more when you see him act than when you hear him speak.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
The miserable are sacred.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Every guilty person is his own hangman.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
The more violent the storm the sooner it is over.
Seneca the Younger
Truths open to everyone, and the claims aren't all staked yet.
Seneca the Younger
The evil which assails us is not in the localities we inhabit but in ourselves.
Seneca the Younger
