Seneca the Younger

If wisdom were offered me with this restriction, that I should keep it close and not communicate it, I would refuse the gift.

Seneca the Younger

If you live according to nature, you never will be poor; if according to the world’s caprice, you will never be rich.

Seneca the Younger

If you look on wealth as a thing to be valued your imaginary poverty will cause you torment.

Seneca the Younger

If you sit in judgment, investigate, if you sit in supreme power, sit in command.

Seneca the Younger

It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, that is poor.

Seneca the Younger

It is opportunity that makes the thief.

Seneca the Younger

It is our conscience, not our pride, that has put doorkeepers at our doors.

Seneca the Younger

It is rash to condemn where you are ignorant.

Seneca the Younger

It is the characteristic of a weak and diseased mind to fear the unfamiliar.

Seneca the Younger

It is the mind that makes us rich and happy, in what condition soever we are, and money signifies no more to it than it does to the gods.
