| MARCUS TULLIUS CICERO |
| �A home without books is a body without soul.�
�If the soul has food for study and learning, nothing is more delightful than an old age of leisure... Leisure consists in all those virtuous activities by which a man grows morally, intellectually, and spiritually. It is that which makes a life worth living.� �If we are not ashamed to think it, we should not be ashamed to say it.� �Let us not go over the old ground, let us rather prepare for what is to come.� �Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.� �Not to know the events which happened before one was born, that is to remain always a boy.� �When you have no basis for an argument, abuse the plaintiff.� �Where is there dignity unless there is honesty?� |
