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!

A man who has been in danger, When he comes out of it forgets his fears, And sometimes he forgets his promises.

How sweet to remember the trouble that is past.
Euripides

Too much zeal offends where indirection works.
Euripides
Image
All men know their children Mean more than life. If childless people sneer- Well, they've less sorrow. But what lonesome luck!

Terrible is the force of the waves of sea, terrible is the rush of the river and the blasts of hot fire, and terrible are a thousand other things but none is such a terrible evil as woman.
Euripides
