More quotes by Aristophanes
Under every stone lurks a politician.
Aristophanes
These impossible women! How they do get around us! The poet was right: can't live with them, or without them!
Aristophanes
If a man owes me money, I never seem to forget. But if I do the owing, I somehow never remember.
Aristophanes
Ah! the Generals! they are numerous, but not good for much!
Aristophanes
The love of wine is a good man's failing.
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
Women, you overheated dipsomaniacs, never passing up a chance to wangle a drink, a great boon to bartenders but a bane to us--not to mention our crockery and our woolens!
Aristophanes
Evil events from evil causes spring, And what you suffer flows from what you've done.
Aristophanes
When men drink, then they are rich and successful and win lawsuits and are happy and help their friends. Quickly, bring me a beaker of wine, so that I may wet my mind and say something clever.
Aristophanes
Do not bandy words with your father, nor treat him as a dotard, nor reproach the old man, who has cherished you, with his age.
Aristophanes
Prayers without wine are perfectly pointless.
Aristophanes
A man may learn wisdom even from a foe.
Aristophanes
High thoughts must have high language.
Aristophanes
It should not prejudice my voice that I'm not born a man, if I say something advantageous to the present situation. For I'm taxed too, and as a toll provide men for the nation.
Aristophanes
There is no beast, no rush of fire, like woman so untamed. She calmly goes her way where even panthers would be shamed.
Aristophanes
The old are in a second childhood.
Aristophanes
Mix and knead together all the state business as you do for your sausages. To win the people, always cook them some savory that pleases them.
Aristophanes
Even if you persuade me, you won’t persuade me.
Aristophanes
Today things are better than yesterday.
Aristophanes
First listen, my friend, and then you may shriek and bluster.
Aristophanes
