More quotes by Seneca the Younger
Drunkenness doesn't create vices, but it brings them to the fore.
Seneca the Younger
It is a world of mischief that may be done by a single example of avarice or luxury. One voluptuous palate makes many more.
Seneca the Younger
The Fates guide those who go willingly. Those who do not, they drag.
Seneca the Younger
Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness.
Seneca the Younger
Great grief does not of itself put an end to itself.
Seneca the Younger
No man finds it difficult to return to nature except the man who has deserted nature.
Seneca the Younger
Happy is the man who can endure the highest and lowest fortune. He who has endured such vicissitudes with equanimity has deprived misfortune of its power.
Seneca the Younger
Just as so many rivers, so many showers of rain from above, so many medicinal springs do not alter the taste of the sea, so the pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. For it maintains its balance, and over all that happens it throws its own complexion, because it is more powerful than external circumstances.
Seneca the Younger
He, who will not pardon others, must not himself expect pardon.
Seneca the Younger
Why does no one confess his sins? Because he is yet in them. It is for a man who has awoke from sleep to tell his dreams.
Seneca the Younger
Drunkenness is nothing else but a voluntary madness.
Seneca the Younger
Misfortunes, in fine, cannot be avoided but they may be sweetened, if not overcome, and our lives made happy by philosophy.
Seneca the Younger
May be is very well, but Must is the master. It is my duty to show justice without recompense.
Seneca the Younger
Crime when it succeeds is called virtue.
Seneca the Younger
See what daily exercise does for one.
Seneca the Younger
Men learn while they teach.
Seneca the Younger
Freedom can't be kept for nothing. If you set a high value on liberty, you must set a low value on everything else.
Seneca the Younger
Human nature is so constituted that insults sink deeper than kindnesses the remembrance of the latter soon passes away, while that of the former is treasured in the memory.
Seneca the Younger
What with our hooks, snares, nets, and dogs, we are at war with all living creatures, and nothing comes amiss but that which is either too cheap or too common and all this is to gratify a fantastical palate.
Seneca the Younger
There's no delight in owning anything unshared.
Seneca the Younger
