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
Image
A good mind possesses a kingdom.
Seneca the Younger

The wise man lives as long as he should, not just as long as he likes.
Seneca the Younger

That is never too often repeated, which is never sufficiently learned.
Seneca the Younger
Image
Extreme remedies are never the first to be resorted to.
