Enjoy these inspirational quotes by Cicero and learn more about him

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) was a Roman writer, statesman, and orator. He was the epitome of the Renaissance Man -- before the Renaissance even happened.

His words continue to educate, influence and inspire today and his words continue to be studied by rhetoricians today.

As a rhetorician I have studied Cicero's works and been inspired by his words -- although I must admit I was not fond of his character in the television historical series "Rome". He did die well though so I have to give him that!

I hope you enjoy these inspirational quotes by Cicero and learn more about him.
