Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
True love can fear no one.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
It is difficult to bring people to goodness with lessons, but it is easy to do so by example.

Seneca the Younger
Auditur et altera pars. (The other side shall be heard as well.)
Seneca the Younger
It is not how many books thou hast, but how good careful reading profiteth, while that which is full of variety delighteth.
Seneca the Younger
It is the sign of a weak mind to be unable to bear wealth.
Seneca the Younger
