Quotes

"If we had no Winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; 
If we did not sometimes taste the adversity, 
prosperity would not be so welcome."

"If ever two were one, then surely we. 
If ever man were loved by wife, then thee."

"If what I do prove well, it won't advance. 
They'll say it's stolen, or else it was by chance. "

"Let Greeks be Greeks, and women what they are. "

"Authority without wisdom is like a heavy axe without an edge, 
fitter to bruise than polish."
