Von Der Kürze Des Lebens

Von der Kürze des Lebens

by Lucius Annaeus Seneca

"On the Shortness of Life" by Seneca is a philosophical treatise that explores the nature of time and how we can make the most of our limited time on earth. Seneca argues that we often waste our time on trivial pursuits and that we need to focus on what is truly important in life. He offers practical advice on how to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life, and his timeless wisdom is as relevant today as it was when he wrote it over 2,000 years ago.
