More quotes by Seneca the Younger
The anger of those in authority is always weighty.
Seneca the Younger
Fidelity purchased with money, money can destroy.
Seneca the Younger
No man was ever wise by chance.
Seneca the Younger
Friendship always benefits love sometimes injures.
Seneca the Younger
I require myself not to be equal to the best, but to be better then the bad.
Seneca the Younger
Retirement without literary amusements is death itself, and a living tomb.
Seneca the Younger
We are wrong in looking forward to death: in great measure it's past already.
Seneca the Younger
It passes in the world for greatness of mind, to be perpetually giving and loading people with bounties but it is one thing to know how to give and another thing not to know how to keep. Give me a heart that is easy and open, but I will have no holes in it let it be bountiful with judgment, but I will have nothing run out of it I know not how.
Seneca the Younger
You have to persevere and fortify your pertinacity until the will to good becomes a disposition to good.
Seneca the Younger
He who has fostered the sweet poison of love by fondling it, finds it too late to refuse the yoke which he has of his own accord assumed.
Seneca the Younger
The philosopher: he alone knows how to live for himself. He is the one, in fact, who knows the fundamental thing: how to live.
Seneca the Younger
Whatever begins, also ends.
Seneca the Younger
We are born to lose and to perish, to hope and to fear, to vex ourselves and others and there is no antidote against a common calamity but virtue for the foundation of true joy is in the conscience.
Seneca the Younger
Virtue with some is nothing but successful temerity.
Seneca the Younger
Home joys are blessed of heaven.
Seneca the Younger
He who has great power should use it lightly.
Seneca the Younger
Let not the enjoyment of pleasures now within your grasp, be carried to such excess as to incapacitate you from future repetition.
Seneca the Younger
We are members of one great body. Nature planted in us a mutual love, and fitted us for a social life. We must consider that we were born for the good of the whole.
Seneca the Younger
God never repents of what He has first resolved upon.
Seneca the Younger
The deferring of anger is the best antidote to anger.
Seneca the Younger
