You must undertake a labour that may bring praise and profit for you.
Hunc laborem sumas laudem qui tibi ac fructum ferat.

More quotes by Gaius Lucilius
Longing can be put out of a [lustful] man, but lust is never put out from a fool.
Good living to you, you gluttons, you guzzlers, good living to you, you bellies!
This is a little better than middling, that is a little less bad than what you would call the worst.
Oh, the cares of mankind! Oh, how much emptiness there is in the world!
