More quotes by Euripides
Only a madman would give good for evil
Euripides

Enjoy yourself, drink, call the life you live today your own but only that, the rest belongs to chance.
Euripides
If there are none [gods], All our toil is without meaning.
Euripides
What greater grief than the loss of one's native land.
Euripides
He is life's liberating force. He is release of limbs and communion through dance. He is laughter, and music in flutes. He is repose from all cares -- he is sleep!

Euripides

Euripides
Delight in splendor is No more than happiness with little: for both Have their appeal.
Euripides
Love distills desire upon the eyes, love brings bewitching grace into the heart.
Euripides

Euripides
New faces have more authority than accustomed ones.
Euripides
He who can properly summarize many ideas in a brief statement, is a wise man.
