“When good men die their goodness does not perish,
But lives though they are gone.”
Temenidæ Frag. 734
Контексте: When good men die their goodness does not perish,
But lives though they are gone. As for the bad,
All that was theirs dies and is buried with them.
Bellerophon
Контексте: Doth some one say that there be gods above?
There are not; no, there are not. Let no fool,
Led by the old false fable, thus deceive you.
Look at the facts themselves, yielding my words
No undue credence: for I say that kings
Kill, rob, break oaths, lay cities waste by fraud,
And doing thus are happier than those
Who live calm pious lives day after day. All divinity
Is built-up from our good and evil luck.
“When one with honeyed words but evil mind
Persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.”
Источник: Orestes (408 BC), l. 907

Источник: The Bacchae
Источник: Alcestis (438 BC), l. 358
Контексте: Oh, if I had Orpheus' voice and poetry
with which to move the Dark Maid and her Lord,
I'd call you back, dear love, from the world below.
I'd go down there for you. Charon or the grim
King's dog could not prevent me then
from carrying you up into the fields of light.
“The fiercest anger of all, the most incurable,
Is that which rages in the place of dearest love.”
