Seneca the Younger
Crime when it succeeds is called virtue.
Seneca the Younger
The great thing is to know when to speak and when to keep quiet.
Seneca the Younger
A good conscience fears no witness, but a guilty conscience is solicitous even in solitude. If we do nothing but what is honest, let all the world know it. But if otherwise, what does it signify to have nobody else know it, so long as I know it myself? Miserable is he who slights that witness.
Seneca the Younger
He, who will not pardon others, must not himself expect pardon.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Nothing is void of God, his work is everywhere his full of himself.

Seneca the Younger
All we see and admire today will burn in the universal fire that ushers in a new, just, happy world.
Seneca the Younger
Be harsh with yourself at times.
Seneca the Younger
