Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Drunkenness is nothing but voluntary madness.

It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that they are difficult.

Let us train our minds to desire what the situation demands.

Courage leads to heaven; fear leads to death.

Things that were hard to bear are sweet to remember.

If you wish to be loved; Love!

Conversation has a kind of charm about it, an insinuating and insidious something that elicits secrets just like love or liquor.

Believe me, that was a happy age, before the days of architects, before the days of builders.

He that does good to another does good also to himself.

The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. It is more powerful than external circumstances.
