A bad beginning makes a bad ending.
EURIPIDESA bad beginning makes a bad ending.
EURIPIDESNothing has more strength than dire necessity.
EURIPIDESThere is one thing alone that stands the brunt of life throughout its course; a quiet conscience.
EURIPIDESWe must take care of our minds because we cannot benefit from beauty when our brains are missing.
EURIPIDESThe company of just and righteous men is better than wealth and a rich estate.
EURIPIDESPrepare yourselves for the roaring voice of the God of Joy!
EURIPIDESAnger exceeding limits causes fear and excessive kindness eliminates respect.
EURIPIDESMortal fate is hard. You’d best get used to it.
EURIPIDESNo one can confidently say that he will still be living tomorrow.
EURIPIDESGod hates violence. He has ordained that all men fairly possess their property, not seize it.
EURIPIDESThis is slavery, not to speak one’s thought.
EURIPIDESEveryone asks if a man is rich, no one if he is good.
EURIPIDESFor in other ways a woman is full of fear, defenseless, dreads the sight of cold steel; but, when once she is wronged in the matter of love, no other soul can hold so many thoughts of blood.
EURIPIDESDo not grieve so much for a husband lost that it wastes away your life.
EURIPIDESThe care of God for us is a great thing, if a man believe it at heart: it plucks the burden of sorrow from him.
EURIPIDESHuman misery must somewhere have a stop; there is no wind that always blows a storm; great good fortune comes to failure in the end.
