Si non ipsa dedit specimen natura creandi?' | 48,323 |
country. In regard to all his religious impressions his intensity | 48,323 |
The same strength of heart and mind characterises that passage of | 48,323 |
fortitude combating the suggestions of human weakness. | 48,323 |
First, we are made to realise the entire unconsciousness in death | 48,323 |
Non si terra mari miscebitur et mare caelo. | 48,323 |
Nec radicitus e vita se tollit et eicit | 48,323 |
Sed facit esse sui quiddam super inscius ipse. | 48,323 |
Nec quisquam expergitus exstat, | 48,323 |
Frigida quem semel est vitai pausa secuta. | 48,323 |
ἀλλὰ, φίλος, θάνε καὶ σύ· τίη ὀλοφύρεαι οὕτως; | 48,323 |
κάτθανε καὶ Πάτροκλος, ὅπερ σέο πολλὸν ἀμείνων-- | 48,323 |
Frigida quem semel est vitai pausa secuta;-- | 48,323 |
Cum summo gelidi cubat aequore saxi;-- | 48,323 |
Urgerive superne obtritum pondere terrae.-- | 48,323 |
Iam iam non domus accipiet te laeta, neque uxor | 48,323 |
Optima nec dulces occurrent oscula nati | 48,323 |
Praeripere et tacita pectus dulcedine tangent, | 48,323 |
Ad confligendum venientibus undique Poenis, | 48,323 |
of the regal state of kings and emperors-- | 48,323 |
Inde alii multi reges rerumque potentes | 48,323 |
Occiderunt, magnis qui gentibus imperitarunt, | 48,323 |
Sic alid ex alio nunquam desistet oriri. | 48,323 |
The practical use of the study of Nature, according to Lucretius, | 48,323 |
Sed nil dulcius est, bene quam munita tenere | 48,323 |
Edita doctrina sapientum templa serena, | 48,323 |
Despicere unde queas alios passimque videre | 48,323 |
Errare atque viam palantis quaerere vitae, | 48,323 |
Certare ingenio, contendere nobilitate, | 48,323 |
Noctes atque dies niti praestante labore | 48,323 |
Ad summas emergere oper rerumque potiri. | 48,323 |
Quod si ridicula haec ludibriaque esse videmus, | 48,323 |
Re veraque metus hominum curaeque sequaces | 48,323 |
Nec metuunt sonitus armorum nec fera tela, | 48,323 |
Audacterque inter reges rerumque potentis | 48,323 |
Versantur neque fulgorem reverentur ab auro | 48,323 |
Nec clarum vestis splendorem purpureai, | 48,323 |
Quid dubitas quin omni' sit haec rationi' potestas? | 48,323 |
Omnis cum in tenebris praesertim vita laboret. | 48,323 |
The desire of power and station leads to the shame and misery of | 48,323 |
most sacred ties of Nature. While failure in the struggle is | 48,323 |
degradation, success is often only the prelude to the most sudden | 48,323 |
Quandoquidem sapiunt alieno ex ore petuntque | 48,323 |
Res ex auditis potius quam sensibus ipsis. | 48,323 |
Praesertim cum tempestas adridet et anni | 48,323 |
Tempora conspergunt viridantis floribus herbas. | 48,323 |
With fervid sincerity he announces the truth that 'to the man who | 48,323 |
Quod siquis vera vitam ratione gubernet, | 48,323 |
Divitiae grandes homini sunt vivere parce | 48,323 |
Aequo animo. | 48,323 |
Aeternumque daret matri sub pectore volnus;-- | 48,323 |
or such pictures, as that at iii. 469, of friends and relatives | 48,323 |
surrounding the bed of one who has sunk into a deep lethargy-- | 48,323 |
Ad vitam qui revocantes | 48,323 |
Circumstant lacrimis rorantes ora genasque,-- | 48,323 |
show how strong and real was his regard for the great elemental | 48,323 |
inscriptions of the Romans, of that 'fear of Acheron'-- | 48,323 |
Funditus humanam qui vitam turbat ab imo | 48,323 |
Omnia suffendens mortis nigrore neque ullam | 48,323 |
Esse voluptatem liquidam puramque reliquit. | 48,323 |
persecution, and to extreme forms of fanaticism in modern times, | 48,323 |
than to the tolerant spirit and the not unkindly superstition of | 48,323 |
Tantum religio potuit suadere malorum,-- | 48,323 |
The limitation of his philosophy is also apparent in his want of | 48,323 |
sympathy with the active duties and pursuits of life. He can see | 48,323 |
only different modes of evil in the busy interests of the world. | 48,323 |
Sed mage pacata posse omnia mente tueri-- | 48,323 |
he regards as the only true religion for man: the 'mute and | 48,323 |
Yet a modern reader, without accepting the conclusions of his | 48,323 |
The same 'vivida vis' with which he observes natural phenomena | 48,323 |
characterises his insight into human character and passion. He | 48,323 |
men seem objects of ridicule or scorn, but to restore them to the | 48,323 |
Aut cum conscius ipse animus se forte remordet | 48,323 |
Desidiose agere aetatem lustrisque perire, | 48,323 |
Aut quod in ambiguo verbum iaculata reliquit | 48,323 |
Quod cupido adfixum cordi vivescit ut ignis, | 48,323 |
Aut nimium iactate oculos aliumve tueri | 48,323 |
Quod putat in voltuque videt vestigia risus: | 48,323 |
Exit saepe foras magnis ex aedibus ille, | 48,323 |
Esse domi quem pertaesumst, subitoque revertit, | 48,323 |
Quippe foris nilo melius qui sentiat esse. | 48,323 |
Currit agens mannos ad villam praecipitanter, | 48,323 |
Auxilium tectis quasi ferre ardentibus instans; | 48,323 |
Oscitat extemplo, tetigit cum limina villae, | 48,323 |
Aut abit in somnum gravis atque oblivia quaerit, | 48,323 |
Aut etiam properans urbem petit atque revisit. | 48,323 |
Tantum religio potuit suadere malorum.-- | 48,323 |
Cur non ut plenus vitae conviva recedis?-- | 48,323 |
Vitaque mancipio nulli datur omnibus usu.-- | 48,323 |
Surgit amari aliquit quod in ipsis floribus angat.-- | 48,323 |
Nam verae voces tum demum pectore ab imo | 48,323 |
Eiciuntur et eripitur persona, manet res.-- | 48,323 |
Divitiae grandes homini sunt vivere parce | 48,323 |
Aequo animo. | 48,323 |
nervous energy, not without flashes of the vigorous wit, of Roman | 48,323 |
Cur etiam loca sola petunt frustraque laborant? | 48,323 |
Nam tibi praeterea quod machiner inveniamque, | 48,323 |
Quod placeat, nil est: eadem sunt omnia semper.-- | 48,323 |
'Quantum Epicure tibi parvis suffecit in hortis.' | 48,323 |
'Vidi ego multa saepe picta quae Acherunti fierent | 48,323 |
