More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Our life's a moment and less than a moment, but even this mite nature has mockingly humored with some appearance of a longer span.
Seneca the Younger
Let him who has given a favor be silent let he who has received it tell it.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing is so false as human life, nothing so treacherous. God knows no one would have accepted it as a gift, if it had not been given without our knowledge.
Seneca the Younger
There is nothing wrong with changing a plan when the situation has changed.
Seneca the Younger
There's no delight in owning anything unshared.
Seneca the Younger
He robs present ills of their power who has perceived their coming beforehand.
Seneca the Younger
Rehearse death. To say this is to tell a person to rehearse his freedom. A person who has learned how to die has unlearned how to be a slave. He is above, or at any rate, beyond the reach of, all political powers.
Seneca the Younger
You should keep on learning as long as there is something you do not know.
Seneca the Younger
The Fates guide those who go willingly. Those who do not, they drag.
Seneca the Younger
The many speak highly of you, but have you really any grounds for satisfaction with yourself if you are the kind of person the many understand?
Seneca the Younger
Men love their vices and hate them at the same time.
Seneca the Younger
Men do not care how nobly they live, but only how long, although it is within the reach of every man to live nobly, but within no man's power to live long.
Seneca the Younger
The path of precept is long, that of example short and effectual.
Seneca the Younger
These individulas have riches just as we say that we 'have a fever,' when really the fever has us.
Seneca the Younger
Those who boast of their descent, brag on what they owe to others.
Seneca the Younger
He is greedy of life who is not willing to die when the world is perishing around him.
Seneca the Younger
If thou wishest to get rid of thy evil propensities, thou must keep far from evil companions.
Seneca the Younger
To meditate an injury is to commit one.
Seneca the Younger
Conversation has a kind of charm about it, an insuating and insidious something that elicits secrets from us just like love or liquor.
Seneca the Younger
It is the power of the mind to be unconquerable.
Seneca the Younger
