More quotes by Seneca the Younger
We should give as we would receive, cheerfully, quickly, and without hesitation for there is no grace in a benefit that sticks to the fingers.
Seneca the Younger
Who can hope for nothing, should despair for nothing.
Seneca the Younger
If one does not know to which port one is sailing, no wind is favourable.
Seneca the Younger
He who boasts of his descent, praises the deed of another.
Seneca the Younger
No man ever became wise by chance.
Seneca the Younger
That which Fortune has not given, she cannot take away.
Seneca the Younger
Some cures are worse than the dangers they combat.
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
The way to good conduct is never too late.
Seneca the Younger
You have to persevere and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to good.
Seneca the Younger
Who-only let him be a man and intent upon honor-is not eager for the honorable ordeal and prompt to assume perilous duties? To what energetic man is not idleness a punishment?
Seneca the Younger
Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively. Strive to get clear notions about all. Give up no science entirely for science is but one.
Seneca the Younger
The wish for healing has always been half of health.
Seneca the Younger
Those things which make the infernal regions terrible, the darkness, the prison, the river of flaming fire, the judgment seat, are all a fable, with which the poets amuse themselves, and by them agitate us with vain terrors.
Seneca the Younger
The wise man lives as long as he should, not just as long as he likes.
Seneca the Younger
The evil which assails us is not in the localities we inhabit but in ourselves.
Seneca the Younger
If ever you come upon a grove of ancient trees which have grown to an exceptional height, shutting out a view of sky by a veil of pleached and intertwining branches, then the loftiness of the forest, the seclusion of the spot and your marvel at the thick unbroken shade in the midst of the open spaces, will prove to you the presence of deity.
Seneca the Younger
It is only the surprise and newness of the thing which makes that misfortune terrible which by premeditation might be made easy to us. For that which some people make light by sufferance, others do by foresight.
Seneca the Younger
Every man prefers belief to the exercise of judgment.
Seneca the Younger
After death there is nothing.
Seneca the Younger
