Only the just man enjoys peace of mind.

Whatsoever causes no annoyance when it is present, causes only a groundless pain in the expectation. Death, therefore, the most awful of evils, is nothing to us, seeing that, when we are, death is not come, and, when death is come, we are not. It is nothing, then, either to the living or to the dead, for with the living it is not and the dead exist no longer.

Any man who does not think that what he has is more than ample, is an unhappy man, even if he is the master of the whole world.

I was not, I was, I am not, I care not. (Non fui, fui, non sum, non curo)

We must consider both the ultimate end and all clear sensory evidence, to which we refer our opinions; for otherwise everything will be full of uncertainty and confusion.

Virtue consisteth of three parts,--temperance, fortitude, and justice.

He who needs riches least, enjoys riches most.
