More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Every day, therefore, should be regulated as if it were the one that brings up the rear, the one that rounds out and completes our lives.
Seneca the Younger
If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favourable.
Seneca the Younger
Fate rules the affairs of men, with no recognizable order.
Seneca the Younger
Constant exposure to dangers will breed contempt for them.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing, to my way of thinking, is a better proof of a well-ordered mind than a man's ability to stop just where he is and pass some time in his own company.
Seneca the Younger
How can a thing possibly govern others when it cannot be governed itself?
Seneca the Younger
Let us ask what is best - not what is customary. Let us love temperance - let us be just - let us refrain from bloodshed.
Seneca the Younger
Be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favours you have received.
Seneca the Younger
The mind does not easily unlearn what it has been long in learning.
Seneca the Younger
Nature does not bestow virtue to be good is an art.
Seneca the Younger
To things which you bear with impatience you should accustom yourself, and, by habit you will bear them well.
Seneca the Younger
He that will do no good offices after a disappointment must stand still, and do just nothing at all. The plough goes on after a barren year and while the ashes are yet warm, we raise a new house upon the ruins of a former.
Seneca the Younger
People pay the doctor for his trouble for his kindness they still remain in his debt.
Seneca the Younger
Death falls heavily on that man who, known too well to others, dies in ignorance of himself.
Seneca the Younger
It passes in the world for greatness of mind, to be perpetually giving and loading people with bounties but it is one thing to know how to give and another thing not to know how to keep. Give me a heart that is easy and open, but I will have no holes in it let it be bountiful with judgment, but I will have nothing run out of it I know not how.
Seneca the Younger
After death there is nothing.
Seneca the Younger
The language of truth is unvarnished enough.
Seneca the Younger
Persistent kindness conquers the ill-disposed.
Seneca the Younger
Some lack the fickleness to live as they wish and just live as they have begun.
Seneca the Younger
We sought therefore to amend our will, and not to suffer it through despite to languish long time in error.
Seneca the Younger
