Results from Poor Man's College:

Anger, if not restrained, is frequently more hurtful to us that injury that provokes it.: Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)
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 (5 BC - 65 AD)
There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage.: Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)

"Just as I shall select my ship when I am about to go on a voyage, or my house when I propose to take a residence, so I shall choose my death when I am about to depart from life. ": Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD), Epistulae Morales

It is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.: Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)
Fear keeps pace with hope. Nor does their so moving together surprise me; both belong to a mind in suspense, to a mind in a state of anxiety through looking into the future. Both are mainly due to projecting our thoughts far ahead of us instead of adapting ourselves to the present. Thus it is that foresight, the greatest blessing humanity has been given, is transformed into a curse.: Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD), Letters to Lucilius V
