Greek • Poet
One does nothing who tries to console a despondent person with word. A friend is one who aids with deeds at a critical time when deeds are called for.
Among mortals second thoughts are wisest.
The best of seers is he who guesses well.
I would prefer as friend a good man ignorant than one more clever who is evil too.
Prosperity is full of friends.
God hates violence. He has ordained that all men fairly possess their property, not seize it.
