More quotes by Homer
Thou wilt lament Hereafter, when the evil shall be done And shall admit no cure.
Homer
Thus have the gods spun the thread for wretched mortals: that they live in grief while they themselves are without cares for two jars stand on the floor of Zeus of the gifts which he gives, one of evils and another of blessings.
Homer
I hate To tell again a tale once fully told.
Homer
Our fruitless labours mourn, And only rich in barren fame return.
Homer
For too much rest becomes a pain.
Homer
A decent boldness ever meets with friends.
Homer
Too dear I prized a fair enchanting face: beauty unchaste is beauty in disgrace.
Homer
Sleep and Death, who are twin brothers.
Homer
Why, you could wake up dead tomorrow
Homer
O friends, be men so act that none may feel Ashamed to meet the eyes of other men. Think each one of this children and his wife, His home, his parents, living yet and dead. For them, the absent ones, I supplicate, And bid you rally here, and scorn to fly.
Homer
You will certainly not be able to take the lead in all things yourself, for to one man a god has given deeds of war, and to another the dance, to another lyre and song, and in another wide-sounding Zeus puts a good mind.
Homer
[B]ut it is only what happens, when they die, to all mortals. The sinews no longer hold the flesh and the bones together, and once the spirit has let the white bones, all the rest of the body is made subject to the fire's strong fury, but the soul flitters out like a dream and flies away.
Homer
Even were sleep is concerned, too much is a bad thing.
Homer
The difficulty is not so great to die for a friend, as to find a friend worth dying for.
Homer
I've finally tapped into that spirit of self-destruction that makes rock-n-roll the king of music!
Homer
Content to follow when we lead the way.
Homer
Ah how shameless – the way these mortals blame the gods. From us alone they say come all their miseries yes but they themselves with their own reckless ways compound their pains beyond their proper share.
Homer
It's disgraceful how these humans blame the gods. They say their tribulations come from us, when they themselves, through their own foolishness, bring hardships which are not decreed by Fate.
Homer
Sing, O muse, of the rage of Achilles, son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans.
Homer
Now son, you don’t want to drink beer. That’s for Daddies, and kids with fake IDs.
Homer
