Lucius Annaeus Seneca
  • I shall never be ashamed of citing a bad author if the line is good.

  • 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.

  • The good things of prosperity are to be wished but the good things that belong to adversity are to be admired.

  • When we are well, we all have good advice for those who are ill.

  • Why do I not seek some real good one which I could feel, not one which I could display?
