A Quote by Horace

The more a man denies himself, the more he shall receive from heaven. Naked, I seek the camp of those who covet nothing. [Lat., Quanto quisque sibi plura negaverit, A dis plura feret. Nil cupientium Nudus castra peto.]

The more we deny ourselves, the more the gods supply our wants. [Lat., Quanto quisque sibi plura negaverit, A dis plura feret.]

Horace

We accomplish more by prudence than by force. [Lat., Plura consilio quam vi perficimus.]

Tacitus

The more a man denies himself, the more shall he obtain from God.

Naked I seek the camp of those who desire nothing.

Horace

Concerning the dead nothing but good shall be spoken. [Lat., De mortuis nil nisi bonum.]

Plutarch

The more of heaven there is in our lives, the less of earth we shall covet.

Charles Spurgeon

Nothing is difficult to mortals; we strive to reach heaven itself in our folly. [Lat., Nil mortalibus arduum est; Coelum ipsum petimus stultitia.]

Horace

Man is his own worst enemy. [Lat., Nihil inimicius quam sibi ipse.]

Marcus Tullius Cicero

Every vice makes its guilt the more conspicuous in proportion to the rank of the offender. [Lat., Omne animi vitium tanto conspectius in se Crimen habet, quanto major qui peccat habetur.]

Juvenal

A man who denies his past is a man who truly denies himself a future, for he refuses to know himself, and to deny knowledge of oneself is to stumble through life as handicapped as the blind mute.

Tobsha Learner

Let a man practise the profession he best knows. [Lat., Quam quisque novit artem, in hac se exerceat.]

Marcus Tullius Cicero

The more wisdom we know the more we may earn. Those who seek to learn more of their craft shall be richly rewarded.

George S. Clason

Meantime, when once we know from nothing still Nothing can be create, we shall divine More clearly what we seek: those elements From which alone all things created are, And how accomplished by no tool of Gods.

Lucretius

The Marxist combination of materialism and determinism is fatally anti-humanistic. It denies a consciousness, a mind, that is independent of material conditions and class relations. It denies a will and volition that are capable of shaping the course of history. It denies an individuality that is not reducible to class. It denies both the idea and the reality of freedom, a freedom that is something more than the "bourgeois" freedom to buy and sell. It denies a morality that transcends class interests. And it denies the spirituality of man.

Gertrude Himmelfarb

Every man should stay within his own fortune. [Lat., Intera fortunam quisque debet manere suam.]

Ovid

People talk to people who perceive nothing, who have open eyes and see nothing; they shall talk to them and receive no answer; they shall adore those who have ears and hear nothing; they shall burn lamps for those who do not see.

Leonardo da Vinci
