Nationality: Greek
Category: Poet
Subcategory: Greek Poet
|  Happy is the man whom the Muses love: sweet speech flows from his mouth. | | But they who give straight judgements to strangers and to those of the land and do not transgress what is just, for them the city flourishes and its people prosper. | | Do not let a flattering woman coax and wheedle you and deceive you; she is after your barn. | | At the beginning of the cask and the end take thy fill but be saving in the middle; for at the bottom the savings comes too late. |
