More quotes by Seneca the Younger
We are wrong in looking forward to death: in great measure it's past already.
Seneca the Younger
To be everywhere is to be nowhere.
Seneca the Younger
It is the fault of youth that it cannot restrain its own impetuosity.
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
Drunkenness is nothing else but a voluntary madness.
Seneca the Younger
It is the characteristic of a weak and diseased mind to fear the unfamiliar.
Seneca the Younger
Drunkenness is nothing but a self-induced state of insanity.
Seneca the Younger
There is nothing after death, and death itself is nothing.
Seneca the Younger
Let the weary at length possess quiet rest.
Seneca the Younger
Epicurus says, gratitude is a virtue that has commonly profit annexed to it. And where is the virtue that has not? But still the virtue is to be valued for itself, and not for the profit that attends it.
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
All art is but imitation of nature.
Seneca the Younger
Corporeal punishment falls far more heavily than most weighty pecuniary penalty.
Seneca the Younger
Resistance to oppression is second nature.
Seneca the Younger
Do everything as in the eye of another.
Seneca the Younger
No evil is without its compensation. The less money, the less trouble the less favor, the less envy. Even in those cases which put us out of wits, it is not the loss itself, but the estimate of the loss that troubles us.
Seneca the Younger
Happy is the man who can endure the highest and lowest fortune. He who has endured such vicissitudes with equanimity has deprived misfortune of its power.
Seneca the Younger
Good sides to adversity are best admired at a distance.
Seneca the Younger
Life is short and art is long.
Seneca the Younger
You learn to know a pilot in a storm.
Seneca the Younger
