Our fruitless labours mourn, And only rich in barren fame return.
Homer
Image
Rather I'd choose laboriously to bear A weight of woes, and breathe the vital air, A slave to some poor hind that toils for bread, Than reign the sceptred monarch of the dead.
Homer
Image
There is nothing more dread and more shameless than a woman who plans such deeds in her heart as the foul deed which she plotted when she contrived her husband's murder.
Homer
Image
The gods give to mortals not everything at the same time.
Homer
Image
A glorious death is his, who for his country falls.
Homer
Image
The tongue of man is a twisty thing, there are plenty of words there of every kind.
Homer
