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

arma non servant modum; nec temperari facile nec reprimi potest stricti ensis ira; bella delectat cruor.

I have made every effort to remove myself from the multitude and to make myself noteworthy by reason of some endowment. What have I accomplished save to expose myself to the darts of malice and show it where it can sting me?

Quem mihi dabis qui aliquod pretium tempori ponat, qui diem aestimet, qui intellegat se cotidie mori?
