More quotes by 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
Abstinence is easier than temperance.
Seneca the Younger
Freedom can't be kept for nothing. If you set a high value on liberty, you must set a low value on everything else.
Seneca the Younger
Every one has time if he likes. Business runs after nobody: people cling to it of their own free will and think that to be busy is a proof of happiness.
Seneca the Younger
He who fears from near at hand often fears less.
Seneca the Younger
The deferring of anger is the best antidote to anger.
Seneca the Younger
He who has made a fair compact with poverty is rich.
Seneca the Younger
Freedom can't be bought for nothing. If you hold her precious, you must hold all else of little worth.
Seneca the Younger
Straightforwardness and simplicity are in keeping with goodness.
Seneca the Younger
If you judge, investigate.
Seneca the Younger
Human society is like an arch, kept from falling by the mutual pressure of its parts
Seneca the Younger
That which Fortune has not given, she cannot take away.
Seneca the Younger
Demand not that I am the equal of the greatest, only that I am better than the wicked.
Seneca the Younger
Pain, scorned by yonder gout-ridden wretch, endured by yonder dyspeptic in the midst of his dainties, borne bravely by the girl in travail. Slight thou art, if I can bear thee, short thou art if I cannot bear thee!
Seneca the Younger
Life's neither a good nor an evil: it's a field for good and evil.
Seneca the Younger
Calamity is virtue's opportunity.
Seneca the Younger
Man is a social animal.
Seneca the Younger
Behold a worthy sight, to which the God, turning his attention to his own work, may direct his gaze. Behold an equal thing, worthy of a God, a brave man matched in conflict with evil fortune.
Seneca the Younger
The willing, destiny guides them the unwilling, destiny drags them.
Seneca the Younger
No work is of such merit as to instruct from a mere cursory perusal.
Seneca the Younger
