But you will bear your sickness more easily both with quiet, and with a noble temper, for it is necessary for mortals to suffer misery. - Euripides

All of us judge by sight and not by knowledge.

La gran prosperidad no es estable entre los mortales. La divinidad, al zarandearla, la rasga de arriba abajo como la vela de una nave rápida y la sumerge bajo penas terribles como bajo las rugientes olas mortíferas de alta mar.

but whoever exercises the art of divination, is a fool; if indeed he chance to show disagreeable things, he is rendered hateful to those to whom he may prophesy; but speaking falsely to his employers from motives of pity, he is unjust as touching the Gods. — Phœbus alone should speak in oracles to men, who fears nobody.
