Publilius Syrus – select quotes

I have often regretted my speech, never my silence.
~ in Maxims

A good reputation is more valuable than money.

Confession is the next thing to innocency.

Let a fool hold his tongue and he will pass for a sage.

Never promise more than you can perform.

No one knows what he can do till he tries.

Rule your desires lest your desires rule you.

The greater a man is in power above others, the more he ought to excel them in virtue. None ought to govern who is not better than the governed.

To ask a favor is a kind of slavery.
