More quotes by Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
You can tell the character of every man when you see how he receives praise.
Seneca the Younger
Do what you should, not what you may.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Whatever has overstepped its due bounds is always in a state of instability.
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
Fidelity bought with money is overcome by money.
Seneca the Younger
It is expedient for the victor to wish for peace restored for the vanquished it is necessary.
Seneca the Younger
A great step toward independence is a good-humoured stomach.
Seneca the Younger
We deliberate about the parcels of life, but not about life itself, and so we arrive all unawares at its different epochs, and have the trouble of beginning all again. And so finally it is that we do not walk as men confidently towards death, but let death come suddenly upon us.
Seneca the Younger
Men do not care how nobly they live, but only how long, although it is within the reach of every man to live nobly, but within no man's power to live long.
Seneca the Younger
The more violent the storm the sooner it is over.
Seneca the Younger
A crowd of fellow-sufferers is a miserable kind of comfort.
Seneca the Younger
What must be shall be and that which is a necessity to him that struggles, is little more than choice to him that is willing.
Seneca the Younger
To the believers it is true. To the wise it is false. To the leaders it is useful.
Seneca the Younger
It is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing is more disgraceful than that an old man should have nothing to show to prove that he has lived long, except his years.
Seneca the Younger
The man who spends his time choosing one resort after another in a hunt for peace and quiet will in every place he visits find something to prevent him from relaxing.
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
It is often better not to see an insult than to avenge it.
Seneca the Younger
