Quote
180 AD·Rome, Italy
From my mother, piety and beneficence, and abstinence, not only from evil deeds, but even from evil thoughts; and further, simplicity in my way of living, far removed from the habits of the rich.
Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.
The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.
Horace·23 BCEven as we speak, envious time is running away from us. Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in tomorrow.
Yamamoto Tsunetomo·1716There is surely nothing other than the single purpose of the present moment. A man's whole life is a succession of moment after moment. If one fully understands the present moment, there will be nothing else to do, and nothing else to pursue. Live being true to the single purpose of the moment. Everyone lets the present moment slip by, then looks for it as though he thought it were somewhere else.
Pindar·476 BCDo not, my soul, seek immortal life, but exhaust the limits of the possible.
