More quotes by Homer
Take thou thy arms and come with me, For we must quit ourselves like men, and strive To air our cause, although we be but two. Great is the strength of feeble arms combined, And we can combat even with the brave.
Homer
Accept these grateful tears...For thee they flow, for thee... That ever felt another's woe.
Homer
It is not strength, but art, obtains the prize, And to be swift is less than to be wise.
Homer
I long for home, long for the sight of home.
Homer
Friend, many and many a dream is mere confusion a cobweb of no consequence at all. Two gates for ghostly dreams there are: One gateway of honest horn, and one of ivory. Issuing by the ivory gate are dreams of glimmering illusion, fantasies, but those that come through solid polished horn may be borne out, if mortals only know them.
Homer
Proud is the spirit of Zeus-fostered kings - their honor comes from Zeus, and Zeus, god of council, loves them.
Homer
Do not beg me by knees or by parents you dog! I only wish I were savagely wrathful enough to hack up your corpse and eat it raw
Homer
Bad herdsmen waste the flocks which thou hast left behind.
Homer
By Jove the stranger and the poor are sent, and what to those we give, to Jove is lent.
Homer
I believe children are the future...which is why they must be stopped now!
Homer
Shoulder-to-shoulder, swing to the work, we must - just two as we are - if we hope to make some headway. The worst cowards, banded together, have their power, but you and I have got the skill to fight their best.
Homer
A generous friendship no cold medium knows, Burns with one love, with one resentment glows One should our interests and our passions be, My friend must hate the man that injures me.
Homer
What so tedious as a twice-told tale?
Homer
Praise me not too much, Nor blame me, for thou speakest to the Greeks Who know me.
Homer
Now deep in ocean sunk the lamp of light, And drew behind the cloudy vale of night.
Homer
Oall the creatures that creep and breathe on earth, there is none more wretched than man.
Homer
Among all men on the earth bards have a share of honor and reverence, because the muse has taught them songs and loves the race of bards.
Homer
To heal divisions, to relieve the oppress'd, In virtue rich in blessing others, bless'd.
Homer
And endless are the modes of speech, and far Extends from side to side the field of words.
Homer
I can't even say the word 'titmouse' without giggling like a schoolgirl.
Homer
