Additional quotes by Horace

Tu ne quaesieris — scire nefas — quem mihi, quem tibi finem di dederint, Leuconoe, nec Babylonios temptaris numeros. Ut melius, quidquid erit, pati. . . . Spem longam reseces. Dum loquimur fugerit invida aetas. Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero.

Let hopes and sorrows, fears and angers be,
And think each day that dawns the last you'll see;
For so the hour that greets you unforeseen
Will bring with it enjoyment twice as keen.

Begin, be bold, and venture to be wise.

Many words shall revive, which now have fallen off; and many which are now in esteem shall fall off, - Horace
