Euripides
  • Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.

  • God hates violence. He has ordained that all men fairly possess their property, not seize it.

  • Down on your knees, and thank heaven, fasting, for a good man's love.

  • The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.

  • Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.
