“As long as you live, keep learning how to live.”
Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales • Lucius Annaeus Seneca“The exchange of one fear or pleasure or pain for another fear or pleasure or pain, which are measured like coins, the greater with the less, is not the exchange of virtue. O, my dear Simmias, is there not one true coin, for which all things ought to exchange?—and that is wisdom; and only in exchange for this, and in company with this, is anything truly bought or sold, whether courage or temperance or justice. ...in the true exchange, there is a purging away of all these things, and temperance, and justice, and courage, and wisdom herself are a purgation of them.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato““Then justice is the art which gives good to friends and evil to enemies.””
Republic • Plato“If thou canst see sharp, look and judge wisely, says the philosopher.”
Book VIII • Marcus Aurelius“Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.”
The Art Of War • Sun Tzu
