The ancient Roman philosopher, author, and naturalist Pliny the Elder studied and wrote extensively about the natural world. He was also a military and naval leader in the Roman empire. He is the first person ever to write an encyclopedia, which is a remarkable achievement in and of itself.
He is known as a "Naturalis Historia Author" in Latin because of his famous book Natural History. The 37 volumes in this book contain more than a million words. This is widely regarded as one of his most significant and impactful books. Pliny the Elder became well-known in the military due to his many quotes on the legions and the city of Pompeii.
While Pliny the Elder is famous for his Latin quotations, this video focuses on his best English sayings that have influenced and advanced several fields of study.
In this video, we'll discuss some of Pliny the Elder's quotes that will give a fresh perspective and help you get to know his views on aspects of life in general.
▶️Here are some Pliny the Elder quotes:
• The only certainty is that nothing is certain.
• From the end spring new beginnings.
• Home is where the heart is.
• No mortal man, moreover, is wise at all moments.
• The lust of avarice as so totally seized upon mankind that their wealth seems rather to possess them than they possess their wealth.
• Truth comes out in wine.
• Such is the audacity of man, that he hath learned to counterfeit Nature, and is so bold as to challenge her in her work.
• The depth of darkness to which you can descend and still live is an exact measure of the height to which you can aspire to reach.
• It is generally more shameful to lose a good reputation than never to have acquired it.
• How innocent, how happy, how truly delightful, even, would life be if we were to desire nothing but what is to be found upon the face of the earth: in a word, nothing but what is provided ready to our hands.
• Hope is the pillar that holds up the world. Hope is the dream of a waking man.
• Grief has limits, whereas apprehension has none. For we grieve only for what we know has happened, but we fear all that possibly may happen.
• An object in possession seldom retains the same charm that it had in pursuit.
• The invention of money opened a new field to human avarice by giving rise to usury and the practice of lending money at interest while the owner passes a life of idleness.
