Text Quotes
When we try to avoid one fault, we are led to the opposite, unless we be very careful (Horace Quotes)
Many shall be restored that now are fallen and many shall fall that now are in honor (Horace Quotes)
Let this be your wall of brass, to have nothing on your conscience, no guilt to make you turn pale (Horace Quotes)
You have played enough; you have eaten and drunk enough. Now it is time for you to depart (Horace Quotes)
Avoid greatness in a cottage there may be more real happiness than kings or their favourites enjoy (Horace Quotes)
I can never forget suffering and I will never forget sunset. I came home with all of it in my mind (Horace Quotes)
The covetous person is full of fear; and he or she who lives in fear will ever be a slave (Horace Quotes)
Joys do not fall to the rich alone; nor has he lived ill of whose birth and death no one took note (Horace Quotes)
There is a proper measure in all things, certain limits beyond which and short of which right is not to be found. Who so cultivates the golden mean avoids the poverty of a hovel and the envy of a palace (Horace Quotes)
While we’re talking, time will have meanly run on... pick today’s fruits, not relying on the future in the slightest (Horace Quotes)
It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows how to use with wisdom the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland (Horace Quotes)
What wonders does not wine! It discloses secrets; ratifies and confirms our hopes; thrusts the coward forth to battle; eases the anxious mind of its burden; instructs in arts. Whom has not a cheerful glass made eloquent! Whom not quite free and easy from pinching poverty! (Horace Quotes)
The aim of the poet is to inform or delight, or to combine together, in what he says, both pleasure and applicability to life. In instructing, be brief in what you say in order that your readers may grasp it quickly and retain it faithfully. Superfluous words simply spill out when the mind is already full. Fiction invented in order to please should remain close to reality (Horace Quotes)
Cease to inquire what the future has in store, and take as a gift whatever the day brings forth (Horace Quotes)
He who postpones the hour of living is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses (Horace Quotes)
I never think at all when I write. Nobody can do two things at the same time and do them both well (Horace Quotes)
This is a fault common to all singers, that among their friends they will never sing when they are asked; unasked, they will never desist (Horace Quotes)
Mix a little foolishness with your prudence: It’s good to be silly at the right moment (Horace Quotes)
There is a measure in everything. There are fixed limits beyond which and short of which right cannot find a resting place (Horace Quotes)
As we speak cruel time is fleeing. Seize the day, believing as little as possible in the morrow (Horace Quotes)
To flee vice is the beginning of virtue, and to have got rid of folly is the beginning of wisdom (Horace Quotes)
He is not poor who has enough of things to use. If it is well with your belly, chest and feet, the wealth of kings can give you nothing more (Horace Quotes)
For joys fall not to the rich alone, nor has he lived ill, who from birth to death has passed unknown (Horace Quotes)
Often a purple patch or two is tacked on to a serious work of high promise, to give an effect of colour (Horace Quotes)
He wins every hand who mingles profit with pleasure, by delighting and instructing the reader at the same time (Horace Quotes)
Who can hope to be safe? Who sufficiently cautious? Guard himself as he may, every moment’s an ambush (Horace Quotes)
Works of serious purpose and grand promises often have a purple patch or two stitched on, to shine far and wide (Horace Quotes)
Men more quickly learn and more gladly recall what they deride than what they approve and esteem (Horace Quotes)
It is too bad how thoughtlessly we set up harsh and unkind rules against ourselves. No one is born without faults. That man is best who has fewest (Horace Quotes)
Man learns more readily and remembers more willingly what excites his ridicule than what deserves esteem and respect (Horace Quotes)
