In our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.
God is not averse to deceit in a holy cause.
Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times.
I would far rather be ignorant than wise in the foreboding of evil.
It is easy when we are in prosperity to give advice to the afflicted.
It is not the oath that makes us believe the man, but the man the oath.
It is the nature of mortals to kick a fallen man.
Words are the physicians of a mind diseased.
- Æschylus (525 BC - 456 BC) Greek Playwright
