Marcus Tullius Cicero Habit Quotations

Our character is not so much the product of race and heredity as of those circumstances by which nature forms our habits, by which we are nurtured and live.

Habit is, as it were, a second nature. [Lat., Consuetudo quasi altera natura effici.]

Vicious habits are so odious and degrading that they transform the individual who practices them into an incarnate demon.
