Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
It is sweet to mingle tears with tears Griefs, where they wound in solitude, Wound more deeply.
Seneca the Younger
We are members of one great body. Nature planted in us a mutual love, and fitted us for a social life. We must consider that we were born for the good of the whole.
Seneca the Younger
The wretched hasten to hear of their own miseries.
Seneca the Younger
So live with an inferior as you would wish a superior to live with you.
Seneca the Younger
Men can be divided into 2 groups: one that goes ahead and achieves something, and one that comes after and criticizes.
Seneca the Younger
He that does good to another does good also to himself.
Seneca the Younger
