More quotes by Aristophanes
Today things are better than yesterday.
Aristophanes

Aristophanes
There is no honest man! not one, that can resist the attraction of gold!
Aristophanes

Aristophanes

Aristophanes

Aristophanes
Evil events from evil causes spring, And what you suffer flows from what you've done.
Aristophanes
If you strike upon a thought that baffles you, break off from that entanglement and try another, so shall your wits be fresh to start again.

Aristophanes
Under every stone lurks a politician.
Aristophanes
You cannot make a crab walk straight.
Aristophanes
An insult directed at the wicked is not to be censured on the contrary, the honest man, if he has sense, can only applaud.
Aristophanes
First listen, my friend, and then you may shriek and bluster.
Aristophanes
Times change. The vices of your age are stylish today.
Aristophanes
A truce to idle phrases!
Aristophanes
It is the compelling power of great thoughts and ideas to engender phrases of equal size.
Aristophanes
