More quotes by Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Every journey has an end.
Seneca the Younger
Death's the discharge of our debt of sorrow.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing, to my way of thinking, is a better proof of a well-ordered mind than a man's ability to stop just where he is and pass some time in his own company.
Seneca the Younger
Ignorant people see life as either existence or non-existence, but wise men see it beyond both existence and non-existence to something that transcends them both this is an observation of the Middle Way.
Seneca the Younger
Who needs forgiveness, should the same extend with readiness.
Seneca the Younger
There is nothing more miserable and foolish than anticipation.
Seneca the Younger
