Seneca. Quotes
But Happy Is The Man Who Has Given It This Impulse Toward Better Things! He Will Place Himself Beyond The Jurisdiction Of Chance; He Will Wisely Control Prosperity; He Will Lessen Adversity, And Will Despise What Others Hold In Admiration. It Is The Quality Of A Great Soul To Scorn Great Things And To Prefer That Which Is Ordinary Rather Than That Which Is Too Great. For The One Condition Is Useful And Lifegiving; But The Other Does Harm Just Because It Is Excessive.
