Additional quotes by Catullus

Mourn, ye Graces and Loves, and all you whom the Graces love. My lady's sparrow is dead, the sparrow my lady's pet, whom she loved more than her own eyes.

Let us live, my Lesbia, and love, and value at one farthing all the talk of crabbed old men. Suns may set and rise again. For us, when the short light has once set, remains to be slept the sleep of one unbroken night.

It is difficult suddenly to lay aside a long-standing love.

Omnia fanda nefanda malo permixta furore iustificam nobis mentem avertere deorum. - Catullus
