Seneca the Younger
A good mind possesses a kingdom.
Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Vice may be learnt, even without a teacher

Seneca the Younger

Seneca the Younger
Reasons for anxiety will never be lacking, whether born of prosperity or of wretchedness life pushes on in a succession of engrossments. We shall always pray for leisure.
Seneca the Younger
Man's ideal state is realized when he has fulfilled the purpose for which he is born. And what is it that reason demands of him? Something very easy-that he live in accordance with his own nature.
Seneca the Younger
Do what you should, not what you may.
Seneca the Younger
Nothing is more honorable than a grateful heart.
Seneca the Younger
