More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The wish for healing has always been half of health.
Seneca the Younger
But it is a pretty thing to see what money will do!
Seneca the Younger
Our posterity will wonder about our ignorance of things so plain.
Seneca the Younger
A dwarf can stand on a mountain, he's no taller.
Seneca the Younger
We all sorely complain of the shortness of time, and yet have much more than we know what to do with. Our lives are either spent in doing nothing at all, or in doing nothing to the purpose, or in doing nothing that we ought to do. We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them.
Seneca the Younger
The mind makes the nobleman, and uplifts the lowly to high degree.
Seneca the Younger
Death falls heavily on that man who, known too well to others, dies in ignorance of himself.
Seneca the Younger
We learn not in the school, but in life.
Seneca the Younger
Obedience is yielded more readily to one who commands gently.
Seneca the Younger
What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more.
Seneca the Younger
We haven't time to spare to hear whether it was between Italy and Sicily that he ran into a storm or somewhere outside the world we know-when every day we're running into our own storms, spiritual storms, and driven by vice into all the troubles that Ulysses ever knew.
Seneca the Younger
When you enter a grove peopled with ancient trees, higher than the ordinary, and shutting out the sky with their thickly inter-twined branches, do not the stately shadows of the wood, the stillness of the place, and the awful gloom of this doomed cavern then strike you with the presence of a deity?
Seneca the Younger
We are all sinful. Therefore whatever we blame in another we shall find in our own bosoms.
Seneca the Younger
He is most powerful who governs himself.
Seneca the Younger
The profit on a good action is to have done it.
Seneca the Younger
You must linger among a limited number of master-thinkers, and digest their works, if you would derive ideas which shall win firm hold in your mind.
Seneca the Younger
As for old age, embrace and love it. It abounds with pleasure if you know how to use it. The gradually declining years are among the sweetest in a man's life, and I maintain that, even when they have reached the extreme limit, they have their pleasure still.
Seneca the Younger
A man who suffers or stresses before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary
Seneca the Younger
Live among others as if God beheld you speak to God as if others were listening.
Seneca the Younger
See what daily exercise does for one.
Seneca the Younger
