Behold a contest worthy of a god, a brave man matched in conflict with adversity.Lucius Annaeus Seneca
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.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Do not grudge your brother his rest. He has at last become free, safe and immortal, and ranges joyous through the boundless heavens he has left this low-lying region and has soared upwards to that place which receives in its happy bosom the souls set free from the chains of matter. Your brother has not lost the light of day, but has obtained a more enduring light. He has not left us, but has gone on before.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
The road be precepts is tedious, by example short and efficacious.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Modesty once extinguished knows not how to return.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
We are so vain as to set the highest value upon those things to which nature has assigned the lowest place. What can be more coarse and rude in the mind than the precious metals, or more slavish and dirty than the people that dig and work them And yet they defile our minds more than our bodies, and make the possessor fouler than the artificer of them. Rich men, in fine, are only the greater slaves.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
