"What gift has providence bestowed on man..." - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Not to know what happened before one was born is always to be a child.”

“To freemen, threats are impotent.”

“Vivere est cogitare. (To think is to live)”

“Life's aspirations come in the guise of children.”

“Women know the way to rear up children (to be just). They know a simple, merry, tender knack of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes, and stringing pretty words that make no sense. And kissing full sense into empty words.”

“Women's love is for their men, not for their children.”

“If you want to make your mother happy, talk to her. If you want to make your father happy, listen.”

“The only luxury is time. The time you get to spend with your family.”

“Mom says it's because she has PMS. Do you even know what that means? "I'm not a little kid anymore. It means pissed-at- men syndrome”
