More quotes by Ovid
Believe me, the gods spare the afflicted, and do not always oppress those who are unfortunate.

Ovid

The more they drink the more they thirst.
Ovid
A red rose peeping through a white? Or else a cherry (double graced) Within a lily? Centre placed? Or ever marked the pretty beam, A strawberry shows, half drowned in cream? Or seen rich rubies blushing through A pure smooth pearl, and orient too? So like to this, nay all the rest, Is each neat niplet of her breast.
Ovid
Heavens! what thick darkness pervades the minds of men. [Lat., Pro superi! quantum mortalia pectora caecae, Noctis habent.]
Ovid
Habits change into character.
