Additional quotes by Sophocles

Not from Hades' black and universal lake can you lift him. Not by groaning, not by prayers. Yet you run yourself out in a grief with no cure, no time-limit, no measure. It is a knot no one can untie. Why are you so in love with things unbearable?

How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be When there's no help in truth!

Inviolable, untrod; goddesses,
Dread brood of Earth and Darkness, here abide.

Oh it's terrible when the one who does the judging judges things all wrong. - Sophocles
