Seneca

It is the power of the mind to be unconquerable.

Our care should not be to have lived long as to have lived enough.

As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.

A person with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds.

Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don’t really matter.

I know the sun rises in the eat and sets in the west, that I am ten fingers and ten toes and ten thousand reasons short of explaining what it is I can’t explain to you. And I know that I will always love you in certainties.

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

There are many spokes on the wheel of life. First, we’re here to explore new possibilities.

Life is not a success-only journey. You are going to get beat up along the way. And you’ve got to have the strength of character to get up and get back in the game.

You are so much more than what people have done to you, and to let that define you, would be a tragedy.

If I were required to guess off-hand, and without collusion with higher minds, what is the bottom cause of the amazing material and intellectual advancement of the last fifty years, I should guess that it was the modern-born and previously non-existent disposition on the part of men to believe that a new idea can have value.

You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you.

I accept chaos, I’m not sure whether it accepts me.

Am I ever gonna grow a thick skin? No.

If you want to test your memory, try to recall what you were worrying about one year ago today.

It is difference of opinion that makes horse races.

Time wounds all heels.

I’m beginning to understand myself. But it would have been great to be able to understand myself when I was 20 rather than when I was 82.
