Lucius Annaeus Seneca

I never come back home with the same moral character I went out with; something or other becomes unsettled where I had achieved internal peace; some one or other of the things I had put to flight reappears on the scene.

Call it Nature, Fate, Fortune; all these are names of the one and selfsame God.

Success is not greedy, as people think, but insignificant. That is why it satisfies nobody.

If you wished to be loved, love.

Love in its essence is spiritual fire.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

While we are postponing, life speeds by.

Life's like a play: it's not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters.
