Nationality: Greek
Category: Poet
Subcategory: Greek Poet
|  To be bowed by grief is folly; Naught is gained by melancholy; Better than the pain of thinking, Is to steep the sense in drinking. | | Not houses finely roofed or the stones of walls well builded, nay nor canals and dockyards make the city, but men able to use their opportunity. | | Wine is a peep-hole on a man. | | 'Tis said that wrath is the last thing in a man to grow old. |
