Sophocles, Antigone quotes
"For God hates utterlyThe bray of bragging tongues."
Take this quote mobile"I have nothing but contempt for the kind of governor who is afraid, for whatever reason, to follow the course that he knows is best for the State; and as for the man who sets private friendship above the public welfare - I have no use for him either."
"Nobody likes the man who brings bad news."
"How dreadful it is when the right judge judges wrong!"
"Grief teaches the steadiest minds to waver."
"The ideal conditionWould be, I admit, that men should be right by instinct;But since we are all likely to go astray,The reasonable thing is to learn from those who can teach."
"Wisdom outweighs any wealth."
"There is no happiness where there is no wisdom;No wisdom but in submission to the gods.Big words are always punished,And proud men in old age learn to be wise."
