Love binds people too, in matrimony’s sacred bonds where chaste lovers are met, and friends cement their trust and friendship. How happy is mankind, if the love that orders the stars above rules, too, in your hearts.
BOETHIUSLove binds people too, in matrimony’s sacred bonds where chaste lovers are met, and friends cement their trust and friendship. How happy is mankind, if the love that orders the stars above rules, too, in your hearts.
BOETHIUSFor in all adversity of fortune the worst sort of misery is to have been happy.
BOETHIUSMusic is part of us, and either ennobles or degrades our behavior.
BOETHIUSAs far as possible, join faith to reason.
BOETHIUSContemplate the extent and stability of the heavens, and then at last cease to admire worthless things.
BOETHIUSGood men seek it by the natural means of the virtues; evil men, however, try to achieve the same goal by a variety of concupiscences, and that is surely an unnatural way of seeking the good. Don’t you agree?
BOETHIUSSo nothing is ever good or bad unless you think it so, and vice versa. All luck is good luck to the man who bears it with equanimity.
BOETHIUSYou know when you have found your prince because you not only have a smile on your face but in your heart as well. Love puts the fun in together, the sad in apart, and the joy in a heart. Who would give a law to lovers? Love is unto itself a higher law.
BOETHIUSHe who is virtuous is wise; and he who is wise is good; and he who is good is happy.
BOETHIUSAs far as possible, join faith to reason.
BOETHIUSHe who has calmly reconciled his life to fate, and set proud death beneath his feet, can look fortune in the face, unbending both to good and bad; his countenance unconquered.
BOETHIUSA person is an individual substance of a rational nature.
BOETHIUSWho would give a law to lovers? Love is unto itself a higher law.
BOETHIUSNothing is miserable but what is thought so, and contrariwise, every estate is happy if he that bears it be content.
BOETHIUSI scarcely know the meaning of your question; much less can I answer it.
BOETHIUSA man content to go to heaven alone will never go to heaven.
BOETHIUS
