Seneca


Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

Drunkenness is nothing but voluntary madness.

Enjoy present pleasures in such a way as not to injure future ones.

Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Friendship always benefits; love sometimes injures.

Just as I shall select my ship when I am about to go on a voyage, or my house when I propose to take a residence, so I shall choose my death when I am about to depart from life.

We never reflect how pleasant it is to ask for nothing.

While we teach, we learn.
