1st Centry BC-?. Roman writer and poet.
Books by Publilius Syrus
Let a fool hold his tongue and he will pass for a sage.
A man's own character is the arbiter of his fortune.
Better to be ignorant of a matter than half know it.
Nothing can be done quickly and prudently at the same time.
Opportunity is lost by deliberation.
It is a bad plan that admits of no modification.
There are some remedies worse than the disease.
Society in shipwreck is comfort to all.
Every vice has its excuse ready.
It is bad advice that cannot be changed.
