Additional quotes by Euripides

سهل على أي انسان، مهما كان حظه من الذكاء، أن يتقدم بالنصيحة دون ترو، فلا نفع في التسرع دون تريث.

ŒD. O ye inhabitants of my illustrious country, behold, I, this Œdipus, who alone stayed the violence of the bloodthirsty Sphinx, now, dishonored, forsaken, miserable, am banished from the land. Yet why do I bewail these things, and lament in vain? For the necessity of fate proceeding from the Gods a mortal must endure.
