Additional quotes by Sophocles

Reason is God's crowning gift to man, and you are right
To warn me against losing mine. I cannot say — I hope that I shall never want to say! — that you
Have reasoned badly. Yet there are other men
Who can reason, too; and their opinions might be helpful.
You are not in a position to know everything
That people say or do, or what they feel:
Your temper terrifies them — everyone
Will tell you only what you like to hear.
