"To give counsel, as well as to..." - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Nature ordains that a man should wish the good of every man, whoever he may be, for this very reason that he is a man.”

“Wars are to be undertaken in order that it may be possible to live in peace without molestation.”

“I will go further, and assert that nature without culture can often do more to deserve praise than culture without nature.”

“When a friend calls to me from the road And slows his horse to a meaning walk, I don't stand still and look around On all the hills I haven't hoed, And shout from where I am, What is it? No, not as there is a time to talk. I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground, Blade-end up and five feet tall, And plod: I go up to the stone wall For a friendly visit.”

“We feasted on love; every mode of it, solemn and merry, romantic and realistic, sometimes as dramatic as a thunderstorm, sometimes comfortable and unemphatic as putting on your soft slippers. She was my pupil and my teacher, my subject and my sovereign, my trusty comrade, friends, shipmate, fellow-soldier. My mistress, but at the same time all that any man friend has ever been to me.”

“The wise man, the true friend, the finished character, we seek everywhere, and only find in fragments.”

“Have you noticed that whatever sport you're trying to learn, some earnest person is always telling you to keep your knees bent?”

“Never be haughty to the humble, never be humble to the haughty.”

“Don't wait the time is never just right.”
