Seneca the Younger Quotes About Solitude

• A good conscience fears no witness, but a guilty conscience is solicitous even in solitude. If we do nothing but what is honest, let all the world know it. But if otherwise, what does it signify to have nobody else know it, so long as I know it myself? Miserable is he who slights that witness.

  Seneca the Younger

  Honesty, Long, Solitude

• It is sweet to mingle tears with tears; Griefs, where they wound in solitude, Wound more deeply.

  Seneca the Younger

  Sweet, Grief, Solitude

• Solitude and company may be allowed to take their turns: the one creates in us the love of mankind, the other that of ourselves; solitude relieves us when we are sick of company, and conversation when we are weary of being alone, so that the one cures the other. There is no man so miserable as he that is at a loss how to use his time

  Seneca the Younger

  Loss, Men, Sick
