Seneca the Younger
Cling tooth and nail to the following rule: Not to give in to adversity, never to trust prosperity, and always to take full note of fortune's habit of behaving just as she pleases, treating her as if she were actually going to do everything it is in her power to do.

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Life is the fire that burns and the sun that gives light. Life is the wind and the rain and the thunder in the sky. Life is matter and is earth, what is and what is not, and what beyond is in Eternity.
Seneca the Younger
So enjoy the pleasures of the hour as not to spoil those that are to follow.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
It is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.
Seneca the Younger
Crime requires further crime to conceal it.
Seneca the Younger
