More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The physician cannot prescribe by letter, he must feel the pulse.
Seneca the Younger
Fortune can take away riches, but not courage.
Seneca the Younger
The willing, destiny guides them the unwilling, destiny drags them.
Seneca the Younger
Shall I tell you what the real evil is? To cringe to the things that are called evils, to surrender to them our freedom, in defiance of which we ought to face any suffering.
Seneca the Younger
Let us fight the battle-retreat from the things that attract us and rouse ourselves to meet the things that actually attack us.
Seneca the Younger
We often want one thing and pray for another, not telling the truth even to the gods.
Seneca the Younger
Let us not seek our disease out of ourselves 'tis in us, and planted in our bowels and the mere fact that we do not perceive ourselves to be sick, renders us more hard to be cured.
Seneca the Younger
Adversity finds at last the man whom she has often passed by.
Seneca the Younger
There's one blessing only, the source and cornerstone of beatitude: confidence in self.
Seneca the Younger
There is more heroism in self-denial than in deeds of arms.
Seneca the Younger
I am telling you to be a slow-speaking person.
Seneca the Younger
No one's so old that he mayn't with decency hope for one more day.
Seneca the Younger
Rehearse death. To say this is to tell a person to rehearse his freedom. A person who has learned how to die has unlearned how to be a slave. He is above, or at any rate, beyond the reach of, all political powers.
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
Nothing will ever please me, no matter how excellent or beneficial, if I must retain the knowledge of it to myself. . . . . . No good thing is pleasant to possess, without friends to share it.
Seneca the Younger
We must take care to live not merely a long life, but a full one for living a long life requires only good fortune, but living a full life requires character. Long is the life that is fully lived it is fulfilled only when the mind supplies its own good qualities and empowers itself from within.
Seneca the Younger
What once were vices are manners now.
Seneca the Younger
He who begs timidly courts a refusal.
Seneca the Younger
In war there is no prize for runner-up.
Seneca the Younger
A good character is the only guarantee of everlasting, carefree happiness.
Seneca the Younger
