Additional quotes by Seneca

So many rich men are stricken before our eyes with sudden poverty yet it never occurs to us that our own wealth also rests on just as slippery a footing.

Is it for this purpose that we are strong—that we may have light burdens to bear?

Would not anyone who is a man have his slumbers broken by a war-trumpet rather than by a chorus of serenaders?

Let us greedily enjoy our friends, because we do not know how long this privilege will be ours. - Seneca
