What passions opposed? What temptation resisted? What virtue acquired? Our vices will abate of themselves if they be brought every day to the shrift  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) Why do I not seek some real good; one which I could feel, not one which I could display?  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) Just as I shall select my ship when I am about to go on a voyage, or my house when I propose to take a residence, so shall I choose my death when I am about to depart from life  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) It is a denial of justice not to stretch out a helping hand to the fallen that is the common right of humanity  (Seneca The Younger Quotes) Happy is the man who can endure the highest and lowest fortune.
