More quotes by Seneca the Younger
It is the power of the mind to be unconquerable.
Seneca the Younger
A person's fears are lighter when the danger is at hand.
Seneca the Younger
The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.
Seneca the Younger
Servitude seizes on few, but many seize on her.
Seneca the Younger
Life is divided into three periods: that which has been, that which is, that which will be. Of these the present is short, the future is doubtful, the past is certain.
Seneca the Younger
It's unknown the place and uncertain the time where death awaits you thus you must expect death to find you, every time, at every place.
Seneca the Younger
Trifling trouble find utterance deeply felt pangs are silent.
Seneca the Younger
This life is only a prelude to eternity.
Seneca the Younger
No man esteems anything that comes to him by chance but when it is governed by reason, it brings credit both to the giver and receiver whereas those favors are in some sort scandalous that make a man ashamed of his patron.
Seneca the Younger
Death is the wish of some, the relief of many, and the end of all.
Seneca the Younger
The wise man lacked nothing but needed a great number of things, whereas the fool, on the other hand, needs nothing (for he does not know how to use anything) but lacks everything.
Seneca the Younger
A thing seriously pursued affords true enjoyment.
Seneca the Younger
No man was ever wise by chance.
Seneca the Younger
God never repents of what He has first resolved upon.
Seneca the Younger
How many discoveries are reserved for the ages to come when our memory shall be no more, for this world of ours contains matter for investigation for all generations.
Seneca the Younger
One must take all one's life to learn how to leave, and what will perhaps make you wonder more, one must take all one's life to learn how to die.
Seneca the Younger
A coward calls himself cautious, a miser thrifty.
Seneca the Younger
Nihil tam acerbum est in quo non æquus animus solatium inveniat. There is nothing so disagreeable, that a patient mind can not find some solace for it.
Seneca the Younger
Life, if thou knowest how to use it, is long enough.
Seneca the Younger
If wisdom were offered me with this restriction, that I should keep it close and not communicate it, I would refuse the gift.
Seneca the Younger
