Propaganda is the art of persuading others of what you don't believe yourself.
— Decimius Magnus Ausonius
The most blissful Decimius Magnus Ausonius quotes that will be huge advantage for your personal development
Earth produces nothing worse than an ungrateful man.
Let the blacksmith wear the chains he has himself made.
He who does not know how to be silent will not know how to speak.
If lucky be not proud; if unlucky, do not despond.
When about to commit a base deed, respect thyself, though there is no witness.
Be not arrogant when fortune smiles, or dejected when she frowns.
Bear good fortune modestly.
If thou art terrible to manyh, then beware of many.
Begin: To have commenced is half the deed.
Half yet remains; Begin again on this and thou wilt finish all.
The best memorial for a mighty man is to gain honor ere death.
Ausonius must be read to be believed! As poet, no subject is too trivial for him; as courtier, no flattery too excessive.
Every stage of life has its troubles, and no man is content with his own age.
If fortune favors you do not be elated; if she frowns do not despond.
If you are a terror to many, then beware of many.
No man will revel long in the indulgence of crime.
It is tormenting to fear what you cannot overcome.
It often happens, that misery will follow a marriage when the dowry is too large.
Can we wonder that men perish and are forgotten when their noblest and most enduring works decay?
Begin whatever you have to do: the beginning of a work stands for the whole.
A favor tardily bestowed is no favor; for a favor quickly granted is a more agreeable favor.
