Marcus Tullius Cicero Quotes

"Habit is the best of all servants, or the worst of all masters.""The greater the difficulty, the greater the glory""In times of war, the law falls silent""Let the punishment match the offense""The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it""Of all nature's gifts to the human race, what is sweeter to a man than his children""Study carefully, the character of the one you recommend, lest their misconduct bring you shame.""Freedom is a possession of inestimable value.""In a republic this rule ought to be observed, that the majority should not have the predominant power.""The foundations of justice are that no one shall suffer wrong; then, that the public good be promoted.""Time obliterates the fictions of opinion and confirms the decisions of nature.""Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices.""Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.""The pursuit of knowledge is never-ending. The day you stop seeking knowledge is the day you stop growing.""Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.""The study and admiration of nature shows that there is something of the marvelous in all things.""Before beginning, plan carefully.""If you have no confidence in yourself, you are twice defeated in the race of life.""It is foolish to tear one's hair in grief, as though sorrow would be made less by baldness""In times of war, the laws fall silent"
