Text Quotes
People pay the doctor for his trouble; for his kindness they still remain in his debt  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) We can be thankful to a friend for a few acres, or a little money; and yet for the freedom and command of the whole Earth, and for the great benefits of our being, our life, health, and reason, we look upon ourselves as under no obligation  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Wisdom allows nothing to be good that will not be so forever; no man to be happy but he that needs no other happiness than what he has within himself; no man to be great or powerful that is not master of himself  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) I never come back home with the same moral character I went out with; something or other becomes unsettled where I had achieved internal peace; some one or other of the things I had put to flight reappears on the scene  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) I will govern my life and thoughts as if the whole world were to see the one and read the other, for what does it signify to make anything a secret to my neighbor, when to God, who is the searcher of our hearts, all our privacies are open?  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Ignorant people see life as either existence or non-existence, but wise men see it beyond both existence and non-existence to something that transcends them both; this is an observation of the middle way  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively. Strive to get clear notions about all. Give up no science entirely; for science is but one  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Anger, if not restrained, is frequently more hurtful to us than the injury that provokes it  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Behold a worthy sight, to which the God, turning his attention to his own work, may direct his gaze. Behold an equal thing, worthy of a God, a brave man matched in conflict with evil fortune  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Believe me, that was a happy age, before the days of architects, before the days of builders  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Everything is the product of one universal creative effort. There is nothing dead in Nature. Everything is organic and living, and therefore the whole world appears to be a living organism  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Everywhere is nowhere. When a person spends all his time in foreign travel, he ends by having many acquaintances, but no friends  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) God is the universal substance in existing things. He comprises all things. He is the fountain of all being. In Him exists everything that is  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) In war, when a commander becomes so bereft of reason and perspective that he fails to understand the dependence of arms on divine guidance, he no longer deserves victory  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) It is another's fault if he be ungrateful, but it is mine if I do not give. To find one thankful man, I will oblige a great many that are not so  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) It is the sign of a great mind to dislike greatness, and to prefer things in measure to things in excess  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) It is the superfluous things for which men sweat, superfluous things that wear our togas theadbare, that force us to grow old in camp, that dash us upon foreign shores  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) It makes a great deal of difference whether one wills not to sin or has not the knowledge to sin  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Precepts or maxims are of great weight; and a few useful ones on hand do more to produce a happy life than the volumes we can't find  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Shall I tell you what the real evil is? To cringe to the things that are called evils, to surrender to them our freedom, in defiance of which we ought to face any suffering  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) The bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to heaven; the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the Earth  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) The display of grief makes more demands than grief itself. How few men are sad in their own company  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) There is none made so great, but he may both need the help and service, and stand in fear of the power and unkindness, even of the meanest of mortals  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes)
