More quotes by Seneca the Younger
There is nothing after death, and death itself is nothing.
Seneca the Younger
For what else is Nature but God and the Divine Reason that pervades the whole universe and all its parts.
Seneca the Younger
There is no greater punishment of wickedness that that it is dissatisfied with itself and its deeds.
Seneca the Younger
All my life I have been seeking to climb out of the pit of my besetting sins and I cannot do it and I never will unless a hand is let down to draw me up.
Seneca the Younger
There exists no more difficult art than living.
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
There is no easy way from the earth to the stars.
Seneca the Younger
A lesson that is never learned can never be too often taught.
Seneca the Younger
If you live according to nature, you never will be poor if according to the world's caprice, you will never be rich.
Seneca the Younger
We have lost morals, justice, honor, piety and faith, and that sense of shame which, once lost, can never be restored.
Seneca the Younger
He who begs timidly courts a refusal.
Seneca the Younger
There is no power greater than true affection.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue with some is nothing but successful temerity.
Seneca the Younger
There's one blessing only, the source and cornerstone of beatitude: confidence in self.
Seneca the Younger
Everything that exceeds the bounds of moderation has an unstable foundation.
Seneca the Younger
True love can fear no one.
Seneca the Younger
No one's so old that he mayn't with decency hope for one more day.
Seneca the Younger
Live among others as if God beheld you speak to God as if others were listening.
Seneca the Younger
But it is a pretty thing to see what money will do!
Seneca the Younger
A man who suffers or stresses before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary
