More quotes by Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
The ascent from earth to heaven is not easy.
Seneca the Younger
The articulate, trained voice is more distracting than mere noise.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Vice is contagious, and there is no trusting the sound and the sick together.
Seneca the Younger
He who tenders doubtful safety to those in trouble refuses it.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Let me therefore live as if every moment were to be my last.
Seneca the Younger
Cling tooth and nail to the following rule: Not to give in to adversity, never to trust prosperity, and always to take full note of fortune's habit of behaving just as she pleases, treating her as if she were actually going to do everything it is in her power to do. Whatever you have been expecting for some time comes as less of a shock.
Seneca the Younger
Servitude seizes on few, but many seize on her.
Seneca the Younger
Let the man, who would be grateful, think of repaying a kindness, even while receiving it.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue is nothing else than right reason
Seneca the Younger
A good person dyes events with his own color . . . and turns whatever happens to his own benefit.
Seneca the Younger
True love can fear no one.
Seneca the Younger
Praise thyself never.
Seneca the Younger
The greatest loss of time is delay and expectation, which depend upon the future. We let go the present, which we have in our power, and look forward to that which depends upon chance, and so relinquish a certainty for an uncertainty.
Seneca the Younger
Principles are like seeds they are little things which do much good, if the mind that receives them has the right attitudes.
Seneca the Younger
Philosophy alone makes the mind invincible, and places us out of the reach of fortune, so that all her arrows fall short of us.
Seneca the Younger
Leisure without study is death, and the grave of a living man.
Seneca the Younger
