A sword never kills anybody; it is a tool in the killer’s hand.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

A physician is not angry at the intemperance of a mad patient, nor does he take it ill to be railed at by a man in fever. Just so should a wise man treat all mankind, as a physician does his patient, and look upon them only as sick and extravagant.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

A gift consists not in what is done or given, but in the intention of the giver or doer.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

It is another’s fault if he be ungrateful, but it is mine if I do not give. To find one thankful man, I will oblige a great many that are not so.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

No man was ever wise by chance.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca

The wish for healing has always been half of health.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
