When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Once again prosperous and successful crime goes by the name of virtue; good men obey the bad, might is right and fear oppresses law  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Unrighteous fortune seldom spares the highest worth; no one with safety can long front so frequent perils. Whom calamity oft passes by she finds at last  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Arms observe no bounds; nor can the wrath of the sword, once drawn, be easily checked or stayed; war delights in blood  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Withdraw into yourself, as far as you can. Associate with those who will make a better man of you. Welcome those whom you yourself can improve. The process is mutual; for men learn while they teach  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) You can tell the character of every man when you see how he gives and receives praise  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) The much occupied man has no time for wantonness, and it is an obvious commonplace that the evils of leisure can be shaken off by hard work  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Before I became old I tried to live well; now that I am old, I shall try to die well; but dying well means dying gladly  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) A sword by itself does not slay; it is merely the weapon used by the slayer  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) If you are wise, mingle these two elements: do not hope without despair, or despair without hope  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Just as we suffer from excess in all things, so we suffer from excess in literature; thus we learn our lessons, not for life, but for the lecture room  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) This is the worst trait of minds rendered arrogant by prosperity, they hate those whom they have injured  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) If any one is angry with you, meet his anger by returning benefits for it: a quarrel which is only taken up on one side falls to the ground: it takes two men to fight  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Virtue runs no risk of becoming contemptible by being exposed to view, and it is better to be despised for simplicity than to be tormented by continual hypocrisy  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) I do not distinguish by the eye, but by the mind, which is the proper judge  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) If a man does not know to what port he is steering, no wind is favourable to him  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) While the fates permit, live happily; life speeds on with hurried step, and with winged days the wheel of the headlong year is turned  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) Without an adversary prowess shrivels. We see how great and efficient it really is only when it shows by endurance what it is capable of  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes) We are more often frightened than hurt: our troubles spring more often from fancy than reality  (Lucius Annaeus Seneca Quotes)
